We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Advit (अद्वित) is a modern Hindu boy's name. Name lists give it as "unique" or "peerless", and link it with the Sanskrit advitīya, which Monier-Williams gives as "having no second", sole, unique or matchless. Advit itself is not recorded in Monier-Williams or Apte, so it appears to be a recent short form shaped on advitīya and on the older name Advait, "non-dual". The meaning parents give it is therefore borrowed from those words rather than from a dictionary entry of its own. It is easy to say in Indian languages and in English.
