What is the meaning of the name Sujatta ?

The baby name Sujatta is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /suːˈdʒɑːtə/ (soo-JAH-tuh).

Sujatta is Sanskrit in Origin.

Sujatta is a modern spelling of the Sanskrit feminine name Sujāta (Devanagari: सुजाता), built from su ‘good, auspicious’ + jāta ‘born’ and meaning ‘well-born, nobly born’ or ‘of good origin.’ Through Pali, the form Sujātā became widely known in Buddhist contexts, and regional pronunciations yield Sujata and South Indian Sujatha; Sujatta reflects an anglicized variant influenced by regional spellings and pronunciation, often pronounced soo-JAH-tah.

It appears throughout classical Indian literature and Buddhist lore - most famously Sujātā, the village maiden who offered milk-rice to the Buddha-to-be before his enlightenment. The name also occurs in Jain and Sanskrit narrative texts and has remained popular across India, Sri Lanka, and Nepal, with diaspora use since the 20th century. Variants include Sujata, Sujatha, Sujaata, and Sujata/Sujatha as unisex in some Tamil contexts, though chiefly feminine. Related masculine Sujāt and Sujat exist but are less common.
