What is the meaning of the name Sarit ?

The baby name Sarit is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced Hebrew: sa-REET (sah-REET),Thai: SAH-rit (sah-rit).

Sarit is Hebrew, Thai in Origin.

Sarit is a feminine Hebrew given name (שרית), a modern diminutive of Sarah formed with the affectionate suffix -it. It inherits Sarah’s meaning, “princess” or “noblewoman,” and came to wide use in 20th‑century Israel; notable bearers include singer Sarit Hadad. Usage peaked in the late 1970s–1990s and remains familiar in Israel today. Related Hebrew forms include Sara/Sarah and the nicknames Sari and Sarina.

Across cultures, Sarit also appears independently. In Thai, สฤษดิ์ (Sarit) is a masculine name deriving from Pali/Sanskrit siddhi, “success, accomplishment, perfection,” known internationally through Prime Minister Sarit Thanarat (1958–63). In South Asian and Romance contexts, the close variant Sarita is common; in Sanskrit it means “stream/river,” while in Spanish/Portuguese it serves as a diminutive of Sara. These look-alike forms share sound but reflect different roots and meanings.
