Achyuta (अच्युत, IAST: Acyuta) is an Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “The infallible, immovable one who never falls”. From the negative prefix 'a-' and 'cyuta' (fallen, moved from place), Achyuta declares Vishnu as the one who is eternally steadfast, never displaced from his divine nature or from his devotees' hearts.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Acyuta is formed from 'a-' (not) and the past participle 'cyuta' from the root 'cyu' meaning to fall, move, or slip away. Vishnu is Achyuta because he never falls from his supreme state, never abandons his devotees, and never wavers in his divine essence — he is the immovable ground of all being. This is one of the most beloved names of Vishnu and Krishna, appearing across the Mahabharata, the Bhagavata Purana, and countless devotional hymns.
Achyuta is an epithet shared by both Vishnu and Krishna and is one of the most frequently invoked names in the Sahasranama. Pronounced 'AH-chyoo-ta,' it is used as a given name across India and remains a timeless choice for Hindu boys.

Achyuta appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
