A boy's name with 111 recorded U.S. births.
Meaning & Origin
Agamjot is a three-syllable boy's name with a sharp, distinct sound — ending on a consonant gives it a firm, clear close. With only 111 recorded U.S. births, it is exceptionally rare — the kind of name most people encounter for the first time when they meet your child.
In the most recent SSA release, Agamjot ranks #6180 among U.S. boy names — distinctive enough to stand out.
Agamjot is a boy's baby name of Punjabi Sikh origin, combining Agam (meaning 'unreachable, infinite' — one of the names of God in Sikhi) and jot (meaning 'divine light, flame') — together meaning 'the infinite divine light.'
Agamjot is a deeply devotional Sikh name that expresses the theological concept of God's infinite, unreachable divine light. The Guru Granth Sahib, Sikhism's eternal scripture, uses both agam and jot extensively in devotional poetry, giving this name profound scriptural resonance.
