Trishita is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.
Trishita is a modern Indian feminine name from Sanskrit tṛṣita (IAST: Tṛṣitā), the feminine past participle of the root tṛṣ- “to thirst, to yearn.” In classical texts, tṛṣita describes one who is parched or filled with longing; by extension the name conveys “yearning,” “ardent desire,” or, in positive readings, “one eager for knowledge or love.” The element is related to tṛṣṇā, “desire,” source of the name Trishna.
Used mainly since the late 20th century in Hindi- and Bengali-speaking communities, Trishita is lexical rather than mythological and suits contemporary tastes for Sanskrit-derived, soft-sounding names. Common variants include Trisita/Trisitha, Trushita, and the related forms Trishna and Trisha; short forms such as Trish occur, especially in the diaspora. Alternative transliterations use diacritics (Tṛṣitā). Pronounced TRIH-shee-tah. Not to be confused with English Trish (from Patricia) or tri- “three”; its sense comes from the “thirst/longing” root.
