Geetanshi meaning
Geetanshi (गीतांशी) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin. By its first sound, गी, it is a Makar rashi name (Dhanishta nakshatra) in the North Indian table.
A part of the Gita (gītā with aṃśa)
Also used to mean: part of a song
Geetanshi (गीतांशी) is a modern girls' name, the feminine of Geetansh. It joins gītā, which Monier-Williams gives as a song or a sacred song or poem, the word in the title of the Bhagavad Gita, with aṃśa, "a share, portion or part". Most name lists give it as "a part of the Gita"; some read the first part as gīta, "song", and give "part of a song". Both readings fit the parts. The compound is not in the classical dictionaries and belongs to the family of -anshi names.
