Bikramjit meaning
Bikramjit (ਬਿਕਰਮਜੀਤ) is a Sikh and Hindu boy's name of Punjabi origin.
Punjabi form of Vikramajit, i.e. King Vikramaditya; vikrama (valour) with jīt (victory)
Bikramjit (ਬਿਕਰਮਜੀਤ) is the Punjabi form of Vikramajit. The Mahan Kosh's entry for Bikramajit simply refers the reader to Vikramaditya, the legendary king of Ujjain. Its first part, bikram, is Sanskrit vikrama, which Monier-Williams gives as a stride and also as valour, courage and strength; the ending jīt means victory. So the name reads "victorious through valour" and also recalls the famous king. Name lists give related glosses such as "prowess" and "conqueror". It is a boy's name used mainly in Punjabi families.
