When we began planning our farmhouse, we knew it would be more than just a place to retreat from the hustle of everyday life. It would be a home where our family could connect, grow, and find peace. We wanted everything about this farmhouse to reflect who we are as a family—our values, our love for each other, and the journey we've shared. That’s why choosing the name was such an important and emotional step for us.
The name: Niranta
The name “Niranta” wasn’t just picked out of a hat. It’s a name with deep personal meaning, a name that captures the essence of our family. We wanted a name that would remind us every day of the love and bond we share, and Niranta was the perfect fit.
“Niranta” is a combination of letters from our names—Nitin, Rashmi, Nia, and Rishab. Each letter carries a piece of us, coming together to form something whole and beautiful, just like our family. But there’s something more to the name, something even more special.
In the middle of “Niranta” is the letter “A.” That letter is not just a coincidence; it’s there for a reason. The “A” stands for Amit, Nitin’s brother. Amit has been a significant part of our lives, someone who has always been there with love and support. By placing the “A” at the center, we wanted to ensure that Amit’s presence and importance in our lives.
The name “Niranta” also carries a meaning in itself. In Sanskrit, it implies something that is endless, eternal, and continuous. That’s exactly what we wanted our farmhouse to represent—a place where our family’s love and connection continue to grow, a place that feels timeless and enduring, just like the bond we share.
The Slogan: 42, Our Life’s Answer
Choosing the slogan “42, Our Life’s Answer” was as thoughtful and meaningful as choosing the name. At first glance, the number 42 might seem like a random choice, but it has a unique significance that resonates deeply with us.
For those who are familiar with Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the number 42 is famously known as the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything. While it’s a whimsical reference from the world of science fiction, for us, it symbolizes the idea that life’s answers often come in unexpected ways, and sometimes the answer is simpler than we think.
Our lives have been a journey of discovery, where we’ve found meaning in the little things—in our relationships, in the quiet moments, and in the love that binds us together. “42” represents the simple yet profound understanding that life’s true meaning comes from the love and connection we share with each other. It’s a reminder that in the grand scheme of things, our family is our greatest answer, our greatest joy.
