Fitri is a versatile and harmonious name suitable for both boys and girls. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Pure', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

Pronounced as Fitri, it has a rhythmic flow that makes it memorable and distinct. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Fitri comes from the Arabic root f-t-r, the same root behind "Eid al-Fitr," the festival marking the end of Ramadan.
