About the name Vedant
Vedant is a Sanskrit Hindu boy's name meaning ultimate knowledge and the end of the Vedas — from "Veda" (sacred knowledge) and "anta" (end, completion). Vedanta refers to the Upanishads, the concluding and most philosophically profound portion of the Vedic scriptures, and to the broader school of Hindu philosophy they inspired. Advaita Vedanta (non-dualism), Vishishtadvaita (qualified non-dualism), and Dvaita (dualism) are three great Vedantic traditions that have shaped Indian philosophy for over two thousand years. Naming a son Vedant expresses an aspiration toward the highest wisdom. Popular in Maharashtra and Gujarat, Vedant (vay-DANT) is a name of genuine intellectual and spiritual depth.
