Meaning & origin
Amol first entered U.S. records in 1976, reflecting immigration patterns from India. Its peak year was 1982, and the name has maintained a stable trajectory since then, never breaking into the top ranks. While not one-in-a-million rare, its consistent use highlights a steady cultural presence. The name holds deep meaning in Sanskrit, and its simplicity has helped it endure without significant revival or decline.
Amol is derived from Sanskrit 'amulya' meaning 'priceless' or 'precious'. It is a common masculine given name in India, particularly among Marathi-speaking communities. The name has been used consistently since the mid-20th century.
