In the dictionaries
We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Jayita (जयिता) is a modern girls' name heard most in Bengal, where it is often spelt Joyita or Jayeeta. It is clearly built on Sanskrit jaya, which Monier-Williams defines as conquest, victory and triumph, and name lists give it as "victorious". We could not find jayitā itself as a word in the Sanskrit dictionaries, so we treat it as a modern name formed from that root rather than an old word. It sits in the same family as Jaya, Jayanti and Jayashree.
