Hemangini meaning
Hemangini (हेमांगिनी) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin. By its first sound, हे, it is a Kark rashi name (Pushya nakshatra) in the North Indian table.
Golden-limbed, golden (from hemāṅga, feminine hemāṅgī)
Also used to mean: golden-bodied
Hemangini (हेमांगिनी) is a longer feminine form of Sanskrit hemāṅga, which Monier-Williams gives as having golden limbs or golden, with the feminine hemāṅgī. It joins heman, "gold", and aṅga, "limb" or "body". As a masculine noun hemāṅga names the champak tree, Mount Meru, Brahmā, Viṣṇu and Garuḍa. Name lists give Hemangini as "golden-bodied", which matches the dictionary. Hemangi is the shorter form of the same name.
