Ahinamanasaivabhayaprada (अहीनमनसैवाभयप्रद, IAST: Ahīnamanasaivābhayaprada) is an Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “Granter of fearlessness through an undiminished, pure mind”. From ahīna (undiminished) + manas (mind) + eva (alone/indeed) + abhaya (fearlessness) + prada (bestower), this epithet extols the Lord who grants absolute refuge to those whose hearts remain whole and unswerving.

Meaning, etymology & significance

The compound ahīnamanasā eva abhayaprada reveals a profound teaching: true fearlessness (abhaya) flows to the devotee whose mind (manas) remains ahīna — unimpaired, complete, undivided. The Lord Vishnu is celebrated here not merely as a protector of the body but as the source of inner invincibility. In Vaishnava theology, abhaya is one of the supreme gifts, and it is granted most perfectly to those who approach the Lord with an unbroken, undistracted devotion.

This richly descriptive epithet belongs to Lord Vishnu as encountered in the Vishnu Sahasranama tradition; as a personal given name it would be unusually long and composite, better suited as a devotional reference. It is pronounced ah-hee-nah-mah-nah-say-vah-bha-yah-pra-dah.
