Meaning of Mehak

Mehak is a feminine given name of Punjabi provenance, etymologically rooted in the Urdu and Punjabi term for “fragrance” and phonemically transcribed as /mɛˈhæk/. It imparts associations of olfactory refinement within its semantic field, reflecting a tradition in South Asian onomastics that valorizes sensorial motifs. Quantitative data from the United States Social Security Administration indicate that the name’s annual incidence has ranged from five to twenty-nine registrations between 1992 and 2023, corresponding to national popularity rankings between 845 and 978; in 2023, eight newborns were named Mehak, yielding a rank of approximately 950. Although its prevalence remains limited within the broader Anglo-American demographic, the steadiness of its adoption among diaspora populations attests to its sustained cultural traction. Phonologically, its two-syllable structure adheres to a CV-CVC pattern that integrates smoothly into English phonetic frameworks.
