Ajeet is a spelling of Ajit — from Sanskrit, 'unconquered, invincible; one who cannot be defeated' (a-, 'not', plus jita, 'conquered'). It is a name of the god Vishnu (we note the deity link). A crisp, strong name across Indian and Sikh families (said 'ə-JEET'; nickname Aj).
In the U.S. it appears in South Asian families. Rare, unconquered-and-invincible at the root, and strong.
