About the name
Anant is Sanskrit — ananta, "infinite, endless" — an epithet of Vishnu and the name of the cosmic serpent on whose coils the god rests between universes.
Common across India and rare in American records, it offers two syllables of literal infinity with three thousand years of philosophy attached.
The name lands softly and means everything (AH-nunt). It pairs well with classic middles (Anant Theodore, Anant Rohan). On our vibe map it is Celestial at cosmological scale with Cultural Fusion reach and Modern Minimalist economy — the biggest meaning per letter in the book.
