About the name Mitesh
Mitesh belongs to the wave of Gujarati names built on esh, lord, that swept Jain and Hindu families in the seventies and eighties alongside Nilesh, Ritesh and Jignesh. It reads as warm and unpretentious, the name of the cousin who organises everyone else, and it has held up better abroad than most of that cohort.
Mitesh is a boy name of Gujarati origin, pronounced mih-TAYSH. On the NameRarity scale it scores 88 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 1980s.
