Suhani meaning

Suhani (सुहानी) is a Hindu girl's name of Hindi origin.

Pleasing, pleasant, agreeable, charming, graceful

Suhani (सुहानी) is the feminine form of the Hindi adjective suhānā, which Platts defines as "pleasing, pleasant, agreeable, charming, becoming, graceful". It is the word in phrases like suhānā safar, "a pleasant journey", and suhānā mausam, "lovely weather". Platts connects the related verb suhānā, "to shine, to look beautiful", with Sanskrit śobh, "to shine". Name lists give "pleasant" or "beautiful", which matches. Suhani is a modern name used across north India; Suhaani is another spelling.
