Aditiduhkhagha (अदितिदुःखघ्न, IAST: Aditiduhkhagna) is an Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “Remover of mother Aditi's sorrow and suffering”. This compound joins 'Aditi' (mother of the gods), 'duḥkha' (suffering, sorrow), and 'ghna' (destroyer, remover), celebrating Vishnu's incarnation as Vamana born to Aditi precisely to end her anguish caused by Bali's conquest of the heavens.
Meaning, etymology & significance
The name Aditiduhkhagha is a three-part compound: Aditi, the cosmic mother and mother of the Adityas; duḥkha, meaning pain or sorrow; and ghna, from the root 'han' meaning to slay or remove. Together they describe Vishnu as the one who destroyed the grief of Aditi when her divine sons were dispossessed of their celestial realm by Bali. Vishnu's birth as Vamana from Aditi's womb was itself the divine response to her tearful prayer.
This is a devotional epithet specific to the Vamana avatara narrative found in the Bhagavata Purana and Vishnu Purana. As a lengthy compound descriptive phrase, it is not typically used as a standalone given name.

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