Meaning not confirmed

In the dictionaries

We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself.

Avneet (ਅਵਨੀਤ) is a modern Punjabi name, given mostly to girls in Sikh families. It belongs to a group of names ending in -neet, such as Navneet, Japneet and Ravneet. Name lists explain Avneet in many different ways, among them "modest", "blessing from God" and "bringer of peace", and no single meaning is shared widely enough to call it the usual one. We could not find the name in the Mahan Kosh. The ending is often linked with nīti, which the Mahan Kosh defines as right conduct and principle, and the first part with avanī, the earth, but no source records how the name was actually formed, so we give no meaning. The actress Avneet Kaur is a well-known bearer.
