Rajitha Fernando is Spanish in Origin.

Rajitha Fernando blends a Sinhala given name of Sanskrit origin with an Iberian surname common in Sri Lanka. Rajitha (Sinhala: රජිත), from Sanskrit rājita, means "illustrious, adorned, made bright," related to the verb rāj- "to shine" or "to rule." Fernando is the Spanish-Portuguese surname from the given name Fernando (Latinized Ferdinandus), ultimately Germanic in origin, often glossed as "brave traveler," from elements meaning "journey, venture" and "bold, daring."

Usage reflects Sri Lanka's cultural layers: Fernando entered local onomastics under Portuguese rule in the 16th-17th centuries and persists across Sinhalese, Tamil Catholic, and Burgher families. Rajitha has been popular in Sri Lanka since the mid-20th century (typically masculine there) and appears as a feminine name in parts of India, especially Telugu-speaking regions. Variants include Rajith, Rajit, Rajita (feminine), and Rajeetha; diacritic forms Rājitha and Rājita occur in scholarly transliteration. Surname variants and cognates include Fernandes, Ferrando, and the Spanish form Hernando.
