In the dictionaries
We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Aadit (आदित) is a modern Hindu boy's name. Name lists usually give it as "first", "from the beginning" or "peak", and some link it to the sun. We could not find Aadit as a word in Monier-Williams or Apte. The closest Sanskrit word is ādi, which Monier-Williams gives as "beginning" or "first", and families often connect the name with Āditya, a name of the sun. Because the dictionaries do not record ādit itself, these meanings come from usage rather than from a dictionary entry. The name is short and sounds the same in most Indian languages and in English.
