What is the meaning of the name Sath ?

The baby name Sath is a Male name , 1 syllables long and is pronounced SAHT (English approximation),/sɑt/ (IPA).

Sath is Khmer, Sanskrit in Origin.

Sath is a compact cross‑cultural given name and surname most often encountered in South and Southeast Asia. It ultimately traces to the Indo‑Aryan root sat (Sanskrit; Pali sat), meaning “truth, goodness, real being,” a base that underlies many Indic names. In Cambodian/Khmer contexts, a cognate form is used in personal names with senses such as “pure, virtuous, clean,” reflecting long Indic influence on Khmer vocabulary and naming. In modern Hindi/Urdu, sath means “together; company,” a nuance that sometimes motivates contemporary use. The name is generally unisex in Cambodia and more often masculine as an Indic short form.

Historically, Sath appears both as a standalone and as a clipped or honorific-like element for longer Sat‑ names. Related forms and variants include Sat, Soth (Khmer romanization), and the longer Sathya/Satya, Satish, Sathvik/Satvik, and Sathi/Saathi. Overall meanings cluster around truth, virtue, purity, and companionship.
