About the name Geeta

Geeta means simply a song, but no Hindu hears it without the Gita behind it, which loads two syllables with a whole scripture. It was everywhere in mid-century India and has since aged into that comfortable category of names that belong to somebody's mother.

Geeta is a girl name of Sanskrit origin, pronounced GEE-tah. On the NameRarity scale it scores 77 out of 100, which places it in the very rare band — a genuinely uncommon pick — most people have never met anyone with this name. Its strongest period was the 1960s.
