Avinaba is Bengali, Sanskrit in Origin.

Avinaba is an Eastern Indo-Aryan, typically masculine, given name, especially in Bengali and Assamese, deriving from the Sanskrit adjective abhinava. Formed from abhi ("toward, intensely") + nava ("new"), it conveys senses of "new, novel, innovative, ever-fresh," and by extension "youthful" or "modern." In Bengali/Assamese phonology, the cluster bh often softens to b or v, yielding the regional spelling Avinaba.

In Sanskrit literature abhinava appears widely in poetry and aesthetics, and it underlies prominent names such as Abhinav and the philosopher Abhinavagupta. As a personal name, Avinaba gained steady usage in eastern India in the late 19th-20th centuries and now occurs across the South Asian diaspora. Variants and spellings include Abhinava (classical), Abhinav (pan-Indian), Abhinab/Abinab, Avinab, and Abinava; related cognates from the same root are Navin/Naveen and Nabin. Common diminutives are Avi and Naba.
