Re: i want to know the meaning
The Sanskrit root dIkS means to dedicate oneself, and dIkSita is one who is dedicated, typically to a monastic order or religious life. The rough English translation would be consecrated or initiated. The surname dIkSita in North India is often pronounced without the last a, and is often written as Dixit in English.It is easier to find meanings of names if you provide more information like the linguistic/cultural/religious/geographical origin to the best of your knowledge.
