Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025
Sangeeta: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 1995.
Sangeeta is a name of Sanskrit origin, meaning “musical” or “accompanied by music,” derived from *sangeet*, the classical Indian term for vocal and instrumental art. In Scotland’s diverse naming landscape, it has been chosen by families with South Asian heritage since the late 20th century. Notable bearers include the Indian actress Sangeeta (born 1947), a leading figure in 1960s Hindi cinema, and Bangladeshi actress Sangeeta (born 1963), a multiple National Film Award winner. The name shares its root with the word *sangeet*, but no specific place bears the name. Variant spellings such as Sangeetha are also common, and the name remains closely tied to the rich traditions of Indian classical music and dance.
