Supreet meaning
Supreet (ਸੁਪ੍ਰੀਤ) is a Sikh and Hindu unisex name of Sanskrit origin, used for both girls and boys.
Very pleased; much cherished, very dear; very kind
Also used to mean: beloved, loving
Supreet (ਸੁਪ੍ਰੀਤ) goes back to Sanskrit suprīta, formed from su-, "well, very", and prīta, pleased or loved. Monier-Williams gives very delighted or well pleased, much cherished and very dear, and very kind. Punjabi speakers also hear it as su, good or excellent, with prīt, love, two words the Mahan Kosh explains. Name lists give "beloved", "pleased" or "loving", all within the Sanskrit range. Supreet is used for boys and girls in Sikh and Hindu families.
