Mitansh meaning
Mitansh (मितांश) is a Hindu boy's name.
A part of a friend (mīt + aṃśa)
Mitansh (मितांश) is a modern name ending in -ansh, from Sanskrit aṃśa, "a share, portion, part". Name lists explain the first part as mit, "friend", which is the Hindi word mīt that Platts traces to Sanskrit mitra, so the whole name is read as "a part of a friend" or simply "friend". On its own Sanskrit mita means "measured" or "firm" rather than "friend", so the friendly reading depends on the Hindi word. The compound is not in the classical dictionaries; it belongs to the recent fashion for names like Vihaan, Reyansh and Medhansh, and is especially liked in Gujarati families.
