Mohita is a feminine given name from Sanskrit mohitā (मोहिता), the past participle of the root moh-/muh-, “to be captivated or bewildered.” It denotes one who is “enchanted,” “charmed,” or “captivated,” a common poetic epithet in classical Sanskrit. In literature it can also describe lovers or devotees enthralled by beauty or divine presence.

The name appears across modern Indian languages, especially Hindi and Marathi (मोहिता), and rose in pan-Indian and diaspora use in the late 20th century with the vogue for Sanskritic names. Variants and transliterations include Mohitha (South Indian usage) and Mohitā (scholarly form); the masculine counterpart is Mohit. Related names in the same semantic field are Mohini (“the enchantress,” an avataric epithet), Mohan/Mohana (“charming”), and sometimes the nickname Mohi. Mohita balances romantic and devotional overtones with straightforward, international pronunciation.
