Unconquered, in the documented Hindi name tradition with Sanskrit ancestry.
The English Ajit entry links the Sanskrit-derived spelling अजीत. The reviewed Hindi entry explicitly records both Ajit given-name use and the unconquered word sense. This is the documented linguistic association, not a claim that a child will be invincible; a deeper Sanskrit compound analysis is not asserted.
Origin
Sanskrit.
The reviewed English given-name entry identifies Sanskrit borrowing. The separately reviewed Hindi given-name and word association supplies the meaning explanation, with its own supporting source.
