Why is Nifty called "Nifty"

General
1

I wonder why Nifty is called as nifty and Sensex is called as Sensex.
Is there any actual meaning for these words ?

2

The term Nifty is derived from the combination National and Fifty as Nifty consists of 50 actively traded stocks

As such there is no meaning to it , but this was suggested& coined by a stock market trader " Deepak mohani "
