Het meaning

Het (हेत) is a Hindu boy's name of Gujarati origin. By its first sound, हे, it is a Kark rashi name (Pushya nakshatra) in the North Indian table.

Love, affection, fondness

Het (हेत, Gujarati હેત) is a short Gujarati word name meaning love or affection. The Gujarati dictionary explains het with prīti, bhāv and sneh, the ordinary words for fondness and tender feeling, and name lists give the same meaning. The same syllable begins many modern Gujarati names, including Hetal, Hetvi and Hetansh. In Hindi, het is usually a form of hetu, "cause", which is why a few lists give "reason" instead; that is a different word. As a given name, Het is used mostly for boys in Gujarati families.
