What is the meaning of the name Sasi ?

The baby name Sasi is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced SHA-shee,SAH-see,/ˈʃaːʃiː/.

Sasi is Sanskrit in Origin.

Sasi is a unisex name with roots in Sanskrit śaśī, a poetic epithet for the Moon and by extension the lunar deity Chandra. In classical verse it evokes cool brightness, beauty, and cyclical renewal, making it an auspicious choice in Hindu and Buddhist cultures. The name is common across India and Sri Lanka, especially in Tamil and Malayalam communities, and may be chosen for children born on Monday or under lunar nakshatras.

Variants include Shashi and Shasi; related compounds are Sasikala, Sasikumar, Shashikant, and Sasidhar/Sasidharan, all preserving the lunar image. In Thai, forms like Sasithorn, Sasiprapa, and Sasitorn often shorten to Sasi, continuing the moon/light sense via Sanskrit-Pali transmission. In some Israeli and Sephardi contexts, Sasi also functions as a pet form of Sasson, ‘joy,’ giving the name a secondary meaning pathway. Pronounced SAH-see, Sasi sees steady modern use and carries a gentle, luminous elegance.
