Pathik meaning
Pathik (पथिक) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin (Gujarati usage).
A traveller, wayfarer, guide; knowing the way
Pathik (पथिक, Gujarati પથિક) is the Sanskrit word for a traveller, formed from patha, "path, road". Monier-Williams gives it as a traveller, wayfarer or guide, citing the Mahābhārata and classical poetry, and as an adjective, "knowing the way". The lone pathika far from home is a familiar figure in Sanskrit and Hindi verse. Name lists give the same meaning, traveller or wayfarer. Pathik is used as a boys' name mainly in Gujarati families.
