Adi

Adi is a name with roots in multiple traditions. In Sanskrit, it derives from ādi, meaning first or beginning, and appears in Hindu contexts as an epithet of the divine, as in the name Adi Shakti, the primordial cosmic energy. In Hebrew, Adi functions as a given name and short form meaning ornament or jewel, drawn from the root ʿadî. Related forms include Adie, Adiel, and the Sanskrit-derived Aditya.
