Gargi is a feminine name steeped in ancient wisdom and spiritual enlightenment. Sanskrit in origin, Gargi was borne by one of the most influential sages in the world—so iconic that the name simply refers to her! Gārgī Vāchaknavī was a natural philosopher and Brahmavadini who possessed a profound understanding of the Vedas. Her name is a form of Garga, a family name known for one of the sons of Brahmā, who was also a sage. From Garga, Gargi means “bull” and “earthworm,” and a measure in music to align with baby’s natural rhythm. If passing down family knowledge and continuing your ancestors' legacy is something you wish for baby, Gargi welcomes your little one home with open arms.
