Soumik meaning

Soumik (सौमिक) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin (Bengali usage).

Relating to Soma or a Soma sacrifice; relating to the moon, lunar

Soumik (सौमिक) is the Bengali form of Sanskrit saumika, an adjective built on soma. Monier-Williams gives it as relating to the sacred Soma juice or a Soma sacrifice, as relating to Soma or the moon, that is lunar, and as observing the Cāndrāyaṇa vow, a fast that waxes and wanes with the moon. Name lists rarely give a clear meaning for Soumik, so the dictionary sense, "lunar, of the moon", is the best guide. It belongs to the same family as Soumya and Somnath and is used mainly in Bengal.
