Aprameya meaning
Aprameya (अप्रमेय) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin. By its first sound, अ, it is a Mesh rashi name (Krittika nakshatra) in the North Indian table.
Immeasurable, unlimited, unfathomable
Also used to mean: boundless
Aprameya (अप्रमेय) is Sanskrit aprameya, formed from a-, "not", and prameya, "what can be measured or known", from the verb mā, "to measure". Monier-Williams gives immeasurable, unlimited and unfathomable, citing Manu, and also "not to be proved". In the Viṣṇu Sahasranāma, the hymn of a thousand names of Viṣṇu, Aprameya appears in the sixth verse beside Hṛṣīkeśa and Padmanābha. Baby-name lists give it as "immeasurable" or "boundless", and link it to Vishnu or Krishna.
In Hindu tradition this is a name of Vishnu.
