Khyati meaning

Khyati (ख्याति) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.

Renown, fame; knowledge, perception; a name

Also used to mean: reputation

Khyati (ख्याति) is Sanskrit khyāti, from the verb khyā, "to be known, to be named". Monier-Williams gives renown and fame, and also a declaration or view, perception and knowledge (in Yoga philosophy it is close to buddhi, the discerning mind), and a name or title. Khyāti is personified as one of the daughters of Daksha. Name lists give "fame" or "reputation", matching the dictionary. In everyday Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati, khyāti still means a good name or reputation.
