Meaning & origin

The name honours Mata Jito, wife of Guru Gobind Singh, who poured the sugar crystals into the sanctified water at the founding of the Khalsa, so it carries both the plain sense of victory and a sacred place in Sikh memory." and belongs to the Courage cluster — names for children who will grow into bold, fearless hearts.
