Choosing a Sikh Name
Like most Indian names, the Sikh baby names beginning with B listed here have spiritual meanings. Some Sikhism names are taken from the scripture of Guru Granth Sahib and others are Punjabi names. English spelling of Sikh spiritual names are phonetic as they come from the Gurmukhi script. Different spellings may sound the same.
Spiritual names starting with B may be combined with other Sikh names to form unique baby names that are suitable for either boys or girls.
In Sikhism, all girl's names end with Kaur (princess) and all boy's names end with Singh (lion).
