Acintāmogavīryāḍhya (अचिन्त्यामोघवीर्याढ्य, IAST: acintāmogavīryāḍhya) is an Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “Rich with inconceivable and infallible divine power”. From acintya (beyond thought), amogha (unfailing/infallible), vīrya (valor/potency), and āḍhya (rich/abundant), this name proclaims that Viṣṇu's strength is both incomprehensible to finite minds and absolutely unerring in its action.

Meaning, etymology & significance

Acintya establishes that no created intellect can fully measure or model the Lord's potency; amogha guarantees that this power never misfires or fails its divine purpose. Vīryāḍhya then characterises Viṣṇu as one who does not merely possess such potency in abstraction but is abundantly, overflowingly full of it. Together these three qualifiers paint a portrait of a Supreme Being whose energy sustains, protects, and liberates without a single ineffective act.

Shorter derivatives such as Amogha and Vīrya are used as given names in Vaiṣṇava families; the full compound is a liturgical epithet. Pronunciation note: the hyphen in the source indicates a pāda break — acintāmogha- vīryāḍhya — but the name is read continuously in recitation.
