Kshiti meaning
Kshiti (क्षिति) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin (Gujarati and Marathi usage).
The earth, its soil; an abode, a dwelling
Kshiti (क्षिति) is a Sanskrit word for the earth. Monier-Williams lists it with the senses of an abode or dwelling place, the earth and its soil, and, in the Rigveda, the settled peoples and nations of the world. Name lists give the same meaning, earth or land. A different Sanskrit word with the same spelling means decline or ruin, but the name always carries the earth sense. The related boys' name Kshitij comes from the same word. Kshiti is used as a girls' name especially in Gujarati and Marathi families.
