Ajna

Ajna is a feminine name with Sanskrit origins, meaning 'command' or 'unlimited power.' In Eastern spiritual traditions, particularly in Hinduism and yoga philosophy, Ajna refers to the sixth chakra, often called the third eye or brow chakra, associated with intuition, wisdom, and inner vision. The name carries connotations of spiritual insight, perception beyond ordinary sight, and heightened awareness. While relatively uncommon in Western countries, Ajna has been gaining modest popularity among parents seeking names with spiritual significance and exotic appeal. Its unique sound and meaningful associations make it an attractive choice for those drawn to names with Eastern philosophical connections.

Pronounced AHJ-nuh.
