Ajita (अजिता, IAST: ajitā) is an Sanskrit-origin Hindu girl-name meaning “Unconquered; the invincible feminine”. Feminine of ajita — the unconquered, the invincible.

Meaning, etymology & significance

Ajita (अजिता) is the feminine form of ajita — "unconquered, invincible." Where the masculine Ajitansh (in this same Phase 4) names "a portion of the unconquered," the feminine Ajita names the unconquered goddess herself.

In Hindu Devi-tradition Ajita is sometimes used as an epithet of Durga — the goddess whom no demon could defeat. The compound carries the entire Devi-warrior tradition into a single feminine adjective.

A daughter named Ajita is named with this invincibility as a quiet inheritance — not as ego-pride but as inner self-possession.

Pronunciation: a-JEE-taa. Pair with classical surnames where the Devi-tradition is welcome.

By the standard Vedic correspondence between the first syllable of a name and the lunar mansion (nakshatra), Ajita aligns with the Krittika nakshatra, under the Mesha rashi (Moon sign).
