Sasmit meaning
Sasmit (सस्मित) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin (Odia usage).
Accompanied with smiles, smiling, laughing
Also used to mean: ever smiling, cheerful
Sasmit (सस्मित) is Sanskrit sasmita, from sa-, "with", and smita, "a smile". Monier-Williams gives it as accompanied with smiles, smiling or laughing, citing classical Sanskrit plays and poems. Name lists give "ever smiling" or "cheerful", in line with the dictionary. Sasmit is the boys' form, used especially in Odisha; Sasmita, with -a, is the girls' name and is already on our site. The Odisha member of parliament Sasmit Patra carries the name.
