Achinthya is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Achinthya is an Indian name from Sanskrit acintya (अचिन्त्य), formed by the privative a- + cintya “thinkable, conceivable,” from the root cint- “to think, to ponder; to worry.” It thus means “inconceivable, beyond thought,” and by extension “beyond anxious thought, free from worry.” The term functions as an epithet of the divine in Hindu philosophy, notably in the Gaudiya Vaishnava doctrine acintya-bhedābheda (“inconceivable oneness and difference”).

Used as a given name across India since the late medieval/early modern period through devotional literature, it is today found in many linguistic communities and is typically unisex - more commonly masculine in the north and east, and also given to girls in the south. Common variants include Achintya (standard transliteration), Achinthya (South Indian spelling), Aachintya, Achintha/Achintha, and the short form Achint. Related names by meaning include Achint and Achinta (“without worry”).
