what does my name prishita really mean?

Question

i have asked this b4 but i only got one response..if there are other cultures apart from the indian culture that has the meaning prishita in it..plz let me know...thank you

Answer 1

It has no meaning here in the USA, and probably in most English-speaking cultures. One part of your name spells a "bad word", but that isn't "meaning", it is "teasing" or "cruelty".

Answer 2

According to http://projectsouthasia.sdstate.edu/Docs/history/primarydocs/Arthashastra/BookII.htm: hollow ornaments

"Goldsmiths who are engaged to prepare various kinds of ornaments such as kánchana (pure gold), prishita (hollow ornaments), tvashtri (setting gems in gold) and tapaníya; as well as blowers and sweepers shall enter into or exit from the office after their person and dress are thoroughly examined. All of their instruments together with their unfinished work shall be left where they have been at work. That amount of gold which they have received and the ornamental work which they were doing shall be put in the centre of the office. (Finished articles) shall be examined both morning and evening and be locked up with the seal of both the manufacturer and the superintendent (kárayatri, the owner getting the articles prepared)."

EDIT:
Now, if Prisha means Beloved; Loving; God's gift, then perhaps Prishita means Little Beloved, or God's little gift?? I don't really think that the suffix "ita" is common in any Indian language, but then again, I could be wrong. I mean, I'm not even Indian, so I guess I shouldn't generalize like that!
