What is the meaning of the name Amitesh ?

The baby name Amitesh is a Male name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced uh-MEE-tesh (IPA: əˈmiːtɛʃ).

Amitesh is Hindi, Sanskrit in Origin.

Amitesh (अमितेश) is a masculine Indian given name from Sanskrit, combining amita, “immeasurable, boundless,” and īśa/īsha, “lord, ruler, god.” It conveys meanings such as “Lord of the infinite,” “Boundless ruler,” or “He who governs the immeasurable.” The theophoric second element links the name to the concept of Īśvara, and many families read it as an honorific epithet of Shiva or, more generally, the supreme divine.

Usage is strongest in North and East India and within the global Indian diaspora, where Sanskritic compounds gained favor in the late 20th century. Variant spellings include Amiteesh (to reflect the long ī), Amiteshh (modern stylization), and the extended Amiteshwar/Amiteshvar (“lord of the infinite”). Related or short forms are Amit, Ami, and Isha/Ish. While not an ancient attested epithet, Amitesh fits a long tradition of devotional Sanskrit compounds balancing philosophical depth with approachable modern sound.
