Used more and more as a name for girls, throughout the European continent.

This name was borne by Russian politician Nikita Khruschev, who became Premier of the Soviet Union from 1957 to 1964.

Nikita is the coolest name ever! Even if it's used for girls more I DON'T CARE. My name is Nikita and I'm a boy. Nikita also means unconquerable, that's awsome. I think if people have babies they should name them Nikita. The name can have lots of nicknames too.

Nikita can have different meanings here they are: brave warrior, unconquerable, victorios person and powerful.

Perhaps popularized for girls after the Luc Besson film "Nikita"/"La Femme Nikita" (1990).

"Nikita" is also the name of an Elton John song.

The name Nikita isn't just a girl name, it's also a boy name. My name is Nikita and I'm a boy. If your a boy and your name is Nikita and you see it's a girl name it's not just a girl name.

My name is Nichita, but the speling is Nikita. That's the writing of the name in Romania. So in Romania you write Nichita and read Nikita.

Sounds more like an Indian name to me.

-- FairyGirl  6/12/2006

Nikita is NOT AN INDIAN NAME! It's a pure Russian name.

Nikita is purely masculine name in Russia (and also in Ukraine), you won't find any female Nikita here! Though I like it on a girl. :-) But not in Russian speaking countries, because the girl with a masculine name would be teased here.

Ahh. YES IT IS AN INDIAN NAME! There were % Nikita's (girls) at my friend's school where she grew up. (she has never ever left INDIA to study ever!) And including herself that makes SIX (6) NIKITA's! That was only in her class too. Hmm.

Nikita is an name occasionally used in Russia and Ukraine. Nikita is not an Indian name like the person above me explained. It is never used in the Indian name section. You might see a girl called Ankita or Kakita in India, but that is not short or a nickname for Nikita. I was born in Kiev, Ukraine and I know that Nikita is not an Indian name. PS, my name IS Nikita. :)

I'm pretty sure that Nikita is an Indian name as well. I actually knew an Indian girl named Nikita once.

-- Anonymous User  3/24/2007

Perhaps the Indian name everyone is thinking of is Nitika, which is of Indian origin, instead of Nikita, which is definitely Russian.

I think Nikita is a beautiful name for girls and boys! My name is also Nikita but it is spelt NIQUITA.

-- kita94  4/10/2008

Nikita is also from the Greek word niketes meaning victor.

-- MaggieSimpson  2/3/2009

Nikita is a Russian name, true. It's also a popular Indian name. Originally spelt as Nikhita, (after going through a lot of confusing Indian baby name sites, I've concluded that it means either "sharp" or "the earth") it is also spelt as Nikitha or Nikita. Still not too sure about what it means, but I'm sure it's an Indian name. One of best friends in primary school was called Nikita. I moved, so we're not in touch anymore, but I'm positive it was Nikita.

In France Nikita is sometimes used as a girl's name (and this use is also becoming popular in other parts of Europe) but in Russia and the Ukraine it's always a boy's name.

-- Caledonia558  7/10/2009

I know a little girl named Nikhita "Niki". I have been told (by Niki's Sis) that Nikhita (with an "H") is a Indian spelling.
