What is the meaning of the name Achindra ?

Achindra is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Achindra is a Sanskrit-derived masculine name formed from the privative prefix a- (“not, without”) and chidra/chhidra (“gap, flaw, fissure”), yielding the sense “flawless, without defect,” and by extension “unbroken, continuous, perfect.” This epithetical nuance - “the spotless one” - appears in Sanskrit literary and devotional contexts, giving the name an auspicious, morally upright tone.

Attested across northern and especially eastern India, notably among Bengali and Assamese speakers from the 19th–20th centuries, Achindra occurs both as a standalone forename and in compounds such as Achindra Nath or Achindra Kumar. Though uncommon today, it carries classical prestige and is occasionally revived for its serene, virtuous meaning. Variant spellings reflect transliteration: Achhidra (retaining the aspirated chh) and Achidra (simplified). Semantically related Sanskrit adjectives like nirdosha (“faultless”) echo its core idea, though they are not direct variants.
