Geet meaning

Geet (गीत) is a Hindu unisex name of Sanskrit origin, used for both girls and boys. By its first sound, गी, it is a Makar rashi name (Dhanishta nakshatra) in the North Indian table.

Sung, chanted; singing, song

Geet (गीत) is the Hindi word for a song, from Sanskrit gīta, which Monier-Williams gives as "sung" or "chanted" and, as a noun, singing or song. The feminine gītā gives the name Geeta and the title of the Bhagavad Gita. Short and easy to say, Geet is used for girls and boys, especially in Punjabi and North Indian families. Geet Dhillon is the heroine of the 2007 film Jab We Met. A notable male bearer is the billiards champion Geet Sethi.
