Mitesh meaning
Mitesh (मितेश) is a Hindu boy's name.
Meaning today
One with few desires, lord of friends
In the dictionaries
The name isn't in the classical dictionaries we use, so it is most likely a modern name. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Mitesh (मितेश) is a name used mainly by Gujarati families, and it is not recorded in Monier-Williams or the other dictionaries we checked. Its ending is clear: -esh is Sanskrit īśa, "lord". The first part is less certain. Name lists most often explain Mitesh as "one with few desires", which may draw on Sanskrit mita, "measured, moderate, little"; others give "lord of friends", reading it as Hindi mīt, "friend", from Sanskrit mitra. Neither derivation is documented, so we list the name as unsourced. Families who choose it usually mean a contented, moderate person or a good friend.
