Srijita meaning
Srijita (श्रीजिता) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin (Bengali usage).
One who has won Śrī (beauty, fortune): śrī + jita 'won, conquered'
Also used to mean: one who wins over beauty
Srijita (श्रीजिता) joins Sanskrit śrī, "beauty, radiance, prosperity" and a name of Lakṣmī, with jita, which Monier-Williams glosses as won, acquired, conquered. The whole compound is not a dictionary headword, so the name is best read as "she who has won Śrī", that is, grace and good fortune. Name lists give "one who wins over beauty", which fits its parts. The name is chiefly Bengali, written শ্রীজিতা, and Sreejita is another spelling; Srijit is a related boys' name.
