A name that means "boundless, infinite".

Aditi (अदिति) is a Sanskrit name meaning "boundless," "infinite," or "unbound" — from a (not, without) and diti (bondage, limit). In the Vedas, Aditi is the goddess of the sky, of consciousness, of the past and the future, and mother of twelve solar deities (the Adityas).

Aditi is one of the most common girl names in India and is rising in Western records as Indian-heritage families carry it forward.

Boundless. The Vedic goddess of the sky.

Where Aditi stands.

Aditi does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
