Paridhi meaning
Paridhi (परिधि) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Enclosure; halo round the sun or moon; horizon; circumference
Also used to mean: boundary
Paridhi (परिधि) is Sanskrit for something that surrounds. Monier-Williams lists an enclosure or fence, the three fresh sticks laid round a sacrificial fire, a garment, the ocean that rings the earth, a halo of light round the sun or moon, the horizon, and any circumference or circle; in Hindi it is still the word for a circle's circumference. Name lists give Paridhi as "boundary", "circumference" or "horizon", all of which are in the dictionary. It is mostly used for girls, though occasionally for boys.
