Sukirti meaning

Sukirti (सुकीर्ति) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.

Good praise, a hymn of praise; well praised, glorious

Also used to mean: good fame

Sukirti (सुकीर्ति) joins su-, "good", with kīrti, "fame, renown, praise". Monier-Williams records sukīrti from the Rigveda as "good praise, a hymn of praise" and as an adjective "well praised, glorious". Name lists give "good fame" or "praise", which matches. It is easily confused with Sukriti, which means "good deeds"; the two differ by the order of two letters. Sukeerthi is a South Indian spelling.
