Gunjit meaning
Gunjit (गुंजित) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin.
Murmured; humming; the song of the koel
Also used to mean: resonating
Gunjit (गुंजित) is Sanskrit guñjita. Monier-Williams gives it as uttered in a low tone or murmured, as humming, and as the song of the koel, the cuckoo whose call fills Indian summers. The word belongs to the same family as Gunjan, the humming of bees, and in Hindi gunjit means echoing or resounding. Name lists give Gunjit as "humming" or "resonating", which matches. It is a modern boy's name that pairs naturally with the older unisex Gunjan.
