What is the meaning of the name Amruta ?

The baby name Amruta is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /əmruːt̪ə/ (uhm-ROO-tuh).

Amruta is Sanskrit in Origin.

From Sanskrit amṛta (अमृत), Amruta means “immortal” and “nectar/ambrosia,” the life-giving elixir of the gods. Built from a- “not” + mṛ “to die,” it appears in Vedic hymns and the Puranic tale of the ocean’s churning (samudra manthana), symbolizing deathlessness and spiritual bliss.

As a given name it flourishes in western India, especially Marathi- and Konkani-speaking communities, and across the subcontinent and diaspora. Common variants include Amrita (pan-Indian), Amrutha (South Indian transliteration), Amrit (unisex/masculine), Amrta/Amrita in IAST; related forms Amrith, Amreeta, and Amreet. While a conceptual term in early texts, it entered wider personal-name use through medieval devotional literature and modern reform movements, and it resonates in Sikh tradition via “Amrit” (baptismal nectar). Contemporary bearers include Marathi actresses Amruta Khanvilkar and Amruta Subhash. Nicknames: Amu, Ruta.
