Looking for a Sikh girl name? Below you'll find 134+ Sikh baby girl names, each listed with its meaning, script, rashi, nakshatra and numerology. Sikh names are traditionally chosen from the first letter of the hukamnama read at the Gurdwara, and most carry a spiritual meaning built from Gurmukhi roots. Filter by starting letter or your baby's rashi, then read the short guide below to shortlist a name your family will love.
About Sikh girl names
Sikh girl names are built from a small set of Gurmukhi roots that each carry a meaning: preet (love), noor (light), jot or jyot (divine light), leen (absorbed in), meet (friend), jeet (victory) and kiran (ray). Put a root after Gur (the Guru), Har (God) or Jas (praise) and you have most of the names families love: Gurpreet ("love of the Guru"), Jasnoor ("the light of God"), Gurleen ("absorbed in the Guru"), Avleen ("devoted to God"), Jasmeet ("fame, praise, friend"). Many Sikh girls' names are also given to boys, and every Sikh girl traditionally carries Kaur ("princess, girl") after her given name, so the given name only has to be beautiful in sound and meaning.
The hukamnama letter
Traditionally the first letter of the name comes from the random reading of the Guru Granth Sahib at the naming ceremony; the starting-letter filter above is built for exactly that.
Built from roots
Learn a few roots and you can read most names: Gurkiran ("the ray of Guru's light"), Prabhleen ("absorbed in God's love"), Mehakpreet ("fragrance of love"), Akaljeet ("timeless, eternal victory").
Light and devotion
Avnoor ("luminous, radiant"), Bhagwantjot ("light of God"), Charanpreet ("fostered under Lord's feet") and Ekampooj ("one who worships the supreme being") name a spiritual quality rather than a thing.
Kaur
Every Sikh girl carries Kaur as her surname by custom, so the given name only has to be beautiful in sound and meaning; the surname is already settled.
