Jewish Baby Names

Sarit

שָׂרִית

• Gender: Female
• Origin: Modern Hebrew
• Meaning: princess
• A contemporary-feeling take on a regal tradition, Sarit means "princess" in Hebrew. It's a derivative of the Hebrew name Sarah, who, as the wife of Abraham and mother of Isaac, was the first matriarch in the Torah. At one point, God tells Abraham, "whatever Sarah tells you, do as she says," but maybe don't mention that to your little Sarit, especially during the toddler years.
