Hitarth meaning

Hitarth (हितार्थ) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin.

Meaning today

Well-wisher, one who does good

In the dictionaries

We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.

Hitarth (हितार्थ) joins Sanskrit hita, "beneficial, kind" or, as a noun, "welfare, the good", with artha, "aim, purpose". Sanskrit often uses artha at the end of a phrase to mean "for the sake of", so the name reads naturally as "for the good of others". Name lists give it as "well-wisher" or "one who does good", which fits that reading. The compound is not a dictionary headword, so this is a meaning built from its parts. It belongs to the same family as Hitesh and Hitansh.
