Mansukh meaning
Mansukh (मनसुख) is a Hindu boy's name of Hindi and Gujarati origin (from Sanskrit).
Happiness of the heart: man 'mind, heart' + sukh 'happiness'
Mansukh (मनसुख, Gujarati મનસુખ) joins two everyday words: man, the mind or heart, from Sanskrit manas, and sukh, from Sanskrit sukha, which Monier-Williams gives as ease, comfort, pleasure, happiness and joy. Together they mean a contented heart or the happiness of the mind, and name lists give the same reading. It is a Gujarati boys' name, also used as Mansukhbhai, and is carried by the Union minister Mansukh Mandaviya and by the nineteenth-century Gujarati writer Mansukhram Tripathi.
