Sita

Indian Names · female

Sita derives from the Sanskrit 'sītā', meaning 'furrow' — the line made by a plough through the earth. The name reflects her miraculous birth: in the Ramayana, Sita emerged from a sacred furrow in the earth when King Janaka was ploughing the ground for a yagna (fire ritual). She is the consort of Lord Rama and the embodiment of feminine virtue, devotion, courage, and purity in Hindu tradition. The name carries profound religious reverence and is given to daughters in devout Hindu families across India.
