History and Origin
Ritwik (Hindi: ऋत्विक, Bengali: ঋত্বিক) is an Indian Hindu masculine given name. In Sanskrit the word Ritwik refers to a priest who performs Yajna, a ritual with sacrificial fire - the divine Agni - to please the gods or to attain certain wishes in every Ritu (a season in the Hindu calendar). The Sanskrit word "Rtvik" is the nominative case of the noun "Rtvij" (Rtu+ij, "seasonal sacrificer"). The female form is "RtvijA" (not RtvikA). The name is also spelled Rittik, Rittick and Rithvik. It is a prevalent given name, mostly among Bengalis.
