Mukti meaning

Mukti (मुक्ति) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.

Release, freedom; final liberation (moksha)

Mukti (मुक्ति) is the Sanskrit mukti, from the verb muc, "to loosen, to set free". Monier-Williams gives setting free or release from something, as in the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa, and final liberation or emancipation, the same as mokṣa, the freedom from rebirth that Hindu, Jain and Buddhist traditions treat as life's highest goal. It can also mean giving something up or the discharge of a debt, and Mukti is named as a divine being, the wife of Satya. Name lists give liberation or freedom, matching the dictionary. The name is used across North and East India.
