Aditi

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Aditi: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 2008.

Aditi is a feminine name of ancient Sanskrit origin, meaning "boundless," "limitless," or "free." In Hindu mythology, Aditi is the mother of the gods, a goddess of the sky and consciousness, representing infinity and abundance. A notable modern bearer is Aditi Rao Hydari, an Indian actress and singer known for her work in Bollywood and regional cinema. The name also appears in academic circles, such as Aditi Lahiri, a distinguished linguist at the University of Oxford. While there are no direct place connections, Aditi shares its root with "aditya," a term for the sun. Popular among Indian families, Aditi has gained some international usage, offering a lyrical and spiritually resonant choice with a sense of vastness.
