Amogha is one that reaches its goal. 

It is used vastly in our scriptures, e.g., Ramcharitmanas, Valmiki Ramayana, Mahabharat, Naarada Bhakti Sutra, Puranas (Skanda, Vaamana) and many more. 

Here are three references from Sundar Kanda of Ramcharitmanas:

1. Darshana / meeting with Bhagwan is said to be Amogha:

जदपि सखा तव इच्छा नाहीं। मोर दरसु अमोघ जग माहीं।। (सुन्दर काण्ड, ४९)

Bhagwan Ram is telling Vibhishan ji that since you met me, you will be blessed. Even though you don't really desire the kingdom, I am bestowing it you. 

2. Blessings of Mata Sita is said to be Amogha:

अब कृतकृत्य भयउँ मैं माता। आसिष तव अमोघ बिख्याता।। (सुन्दर काण्ड, १७)

Sita ji blesses Hanuman ji in Ashoka Vaatika, and Hanuman ji is calling Mata Sita's blessings as Amogha. 

3. Ram-baana is called as Amogha:

जिमि अमोघ रघुपति कर बाना। एही भाँति चलेउ हनुमाना।। (सुन्दर काण्ड, १)

Tulsidas ji is saying, that just like the arrow of Bhagwan Ram never misses its goal, in a similar way Hanuman ji left for Lanka (he would surely reach his goal).

• Gender: Boy

• Meaning: The one wins over or controls his enemies

• राशि: मेष

This is a beautiful name. 

In Dharmik (Hindu / Buddhist / Jain) traditions, the real enemies of a person is considered to be six (षड्-रिपु) - काम (desires), क्रोध (anger), लोभ (greed), मोह (attachment), मद (intoxication) और मात्सर्य (jealousy).

The one who conquers these is called Arindam. 

• Bhagwan Ram is many times referred to as Arindam in Valmiki Ramayana.

• In Jain traditions, this is synonymous to Arihanta

• Gender: Boy

• Meaning: The one kills his enemies

• राशि: मेष

• In Jain traditions, all 24 great masters are called as Arihanta.

• Gender: Akshara (Boy), Aksharaa (Girl)

• Meaning: One without decay (i.e. Bhagwaan)

• राशि: मेष

क्षर means decay, thus अक्षर means that which does not decay!

If we think for a minute, what is it in the world that doesn't decay? We can see and note that anything finite decays. Be it any life-form, huge buildings and mountains also decay. Even our sun, solar system and galaxy have a lifetime. So what is it that doesn't decay? That must be Bhagwan.

• Gender: Akshaja (Boy), Akshajaa (Girl)

• Meaning: Born from the One without decay (i.e. Child of Bhagwaan  or Child of Infinity)

• राशि: मेष

And the child of that अक्षर is अक्षज / अक्षजा. The letter 'ज' / 'जा' in Sanskrit denote born off (जनन / जायते). For example, lotus which is born in water or mud is called as नीरज / नीरजा (नीर means water) or पङ्कज / पङ्कजा (पङ्क means mud). 

Similarly, अक्षज / अक्षजा means born out of अक्षर or child of Infinity.

यदि केवल शाब्दिक अर्थ देखें तो--

दृक् शब्द का अर्थ है दृष्टा या देखने वाला। 

साक्षी का अर्थ भी वैसा ही है, वह दृष्टा जो स्वयं दृश्य से अलग या निर्लिप्त है। 

हमारे शास्त्रों की भाषा में या अाम बोलचाल की भाषा में भी, देखने का अर्थ केवल आँखों से देखना नहीं है। जैसे हम किसी को कहते हैं देखिए क्या चल रहा है, अौर वो कहे कि ठीक है हम देखेंगें। यहाँ देखने का अर्थ केवल देखने से नहीं है, समझने से है।

हमारे हिन्दु शास्त्रों में भी यह बहुत जगह देखा गया है। जैसे श्रीमद्भगवद्गीता के १३/२८ वें श्लोक में।

दृक् का अर्थ वेदान्त की दृष्टि से कहें तो -- वह जो सब कुछ देखता है, जो सब कुछ जानता है। अद्वैत वेदान्त की दृष्टि से कहें तो वही ब्रह्मन है। आम बोलचाल की भाषा में उसे हम परमात्मा या भगवान कहते हैं, जो घट-घट वासी है। सब देखता है, सब जानता है।  

शङ्कराचार्य जी ने एक काव्य लिखा है, जिसका नाम दृग्-दृश्य (दृक् + दृश्य) विवेक है। उसका पहला श्लोक इस प्रकार है:

रूपं दृश्यं लोचनं दृक् तद्दृश्यं दृक्तु मानसम्।

दृश्या धीवृत्तयः साक्षी दृगेव न तु दृश्यते ॥१॥

रूपं दृश्यं लोचनं दृक् -- रूप वह दृश्य है, जिसे आँखें देख रही हैं,

तद्दृश्यं दृक्तु मानसम् -- उन (आँखों) को देखने वाला मन है,

दृश्या धीवृत्तयः साक्षी -- मन की वृत्तियों को जो देख रहा है, वह साक्षी है,

दृगेव न तु दृश्यते -- वह केवल दृक् (दृष्टा) है, वह दिखाई नहीं देता।

अर्थात् वह परमात्मा जो दिखाई नहीं देता, पर जो सब कुछ देखता है, जो सब कुछ जानता है।

अद्वैत वेदान्त की दृष्टि से दृक् अौर दृक्साक्षी उसी परमात्मा के ही दो समानार्थी नाम हैं -- 

दृक् अर्थात् सब कुछ देखने / जानने वाला, अौर

दृक्साक्षी अर्थात् सब कुछ देखने / जानने वाली जो उस दृश्य / ज्ञान से अलग है, परे है।

यदि द्वैत वेदान्त की दृष्टि से देखें तो भी दृक् अौर दृक्साक्षी का यह अर्थ ठीक है, परन्तु एक भिन्न अर्थ भी होता है:  

दृक् अर्थात् परमात्मा, अौर दृक्साक्षी को हम भक्ति में लीन उनका अनन्य भक्त भी जान सकते है। वह जिसे सब जगह केवल परमात्मा ही दिखाई दे, वह भी दृक्साक्षी ही है।

• "नौरता / नौरती" शब्द का अर्थ नौ दिन का उत्सव होता है। यह शब्द विशेष रूप से नवरात्रि (नौ रातों तक चलने वाला देवी का पर्व) के सन्दर्भ में प्रयोग किया जाता है। राजस्थान और उत्तर भारत के कुछ हिस्सों में, "नौरता" शब्द का प्रयोग नवरात्रि के दौरान देवी आराधना, व्रत, जागरण और भजन-कीर्तन के लिए किया जाता है।

• "नौरता" शब्द ब्रजभाषा और लोकभाषा में आता है, और इसे श्री राधा रानी के प्रति भक्ति से भी जोड़ा जाता है। कुछ पारंपरिक भजनों में "राधा रानी के नौरते" का उल्लेख मिलता है, जिसका अर्थ होता है श्री राधा के दिव्य उत्सव या विशेष पूजा के दिन।

• राजस्थान के कुछ क्षेत्रों में परिवार की पहली बेटी का नाम "नौरती" रखने को शुभ माना जाता रहा है।
