What is the meaning of the name Rasi ?

The baby name Rasi is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced RAH-shee (IPA: /ˈrɑːʃi/).

Rasi is Sanskrit, Tamil in Origin.

Rasi is a multicultural name with strongest roots in Sanskrit rāśi, meaning “collection, sum, or zodiac sign.” In South Asian astrology (Jyotisha), a rāśi is one of the twelve zodiac divisions, so the name carries associations of stars, destiny, and good fortune. The form is widespread across Indo-Aryan and Dravidian languages (e.g., Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, Marathi; Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Telugu), and in Indonesian rasi means “constellation,” reinforcing its celestial sense.

Used as a given name in India since the late 20th century, Rasi is typically feminine but can be unisex, especially in southern states and the diaspora. Common variants include Rashi, Raashi, and Raasi. Note that Rashi as a Jewish surname/acronym has a different origin. A separate Arabic adjective rāsi (راسي, “steady, firmly set”) sometimes underlies the name in Muslim families. Overall, Rasi suggests cosmic guidance and auspicious abundance.
