Meaning today
Intellectual curiosity
In the dictionaries
We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Jigna (जिग्ना) is a girls' name used mainly in Gujarati families. We could not find jignā as a word in the Sanskrit, Hindi or Gujarati dictionaries we use. Name lists give its meaning as "intellectual curiosity", which points to jignāsā, the Gujarati form of Sanskrit jijñāsā, "desire to know" (the same word as the name Jigyasa). That link is plausible but not documented, so we show the meaning as a popular one only.
