What is the meaning of the name Amogh ?

The baby name Amogh is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced uh-MOHG; IPA: /əˈmoːɡ/.

Amogh is Sanskrit in Origin.

Amogh is a masculine Indian given name from Sanskrit amogha ‘unfailing, efficacious, not in vain’, formed from the privative a- ‘not’ + mogha ‘vain, fruitless’. It conveys reliability, sure success, and infallibility. In devotional literature it appears as an epithet of deities (notably in Vishnu lists of names) and resonates with the Buddhist figure Amoghasiddhi, ‘unfailing accomplishment’.

Attested in classical Sanskrit poetry and epics describing “amogha astra” (unfailing weapons), the name gained modern currency across Hindi, Marathi, Kannada, Telugu, and other Indian languages. Variants and transliterations include Amogha (scholarly Sanskrit), Amogh, Amog, and the Prakrit/Pali form Amoga; the -a ending Amogha can serve as a rare unisex or feminine option. Related names include Amoghasiddhi in Buddhist traditions and compounds like Amoghavarsha, borne by a 9th‑century Rashtrakuta emperor. Today Amogh is favored in India and the diaspora for its crisp sound and its aspirational sense of dependable success.
