Rohitaksh is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Rohitaksh is an Indian masculine name from Sanskrit rohit(a) “reddish, sun-hued” and aksha “eye,” hence “red‑eyed,” “sun‑eyed,” or “one with radiant eyes.” The root rohitá is closely associated with dawn and the rising sun, while ākṣa compounds in classical verse often extol the beauty or power present in a hero’s or deity’s gaze.

Though uncommon in older name lists, the compound pattern is ancient, and Rohitaksh appears in contemporary use across Hindi and other South Asian languages. Variant forms include Rohitaksha, Rohitāksha, and the Devanagari रोहिताक्ष; short forms are Rohit, Rohi, and Aksh. The name is sometimes read devotionally as an epithet suitable to Vishnu or Shiva, both praised for glowing eyes, but today it is chosen chiefly for its luminous, auspicious sense - suggesting brilliance, keen vision, and solar vitality. Related but distinct names include Rohit (widely used) and Rohitash/Rohitashwa (“red-horsed”).
