Garvita meaning
Garvita (गर्विता) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Proud; haughty, conceited
Also used to mean: dignified
Garvita (गर्विता) is the feminine of Sanskrit garvita, an adjective from garva, "pride". Monier-Williams gives it as proud of something, and also as haughty or conceited, citing the Ramayana and Kalidasa, so the classical word could carry praise or blame. Name lists give Garvita as "proud" or "dignified", choosing the positive side of the word. In modern Hindi garv usually means honest pride in someone or something. Garvita is the girls' form of Garvit, and belongs with names built on pride and honour, such as Garima and Gauravi.
