In the Sikh culture kaur means princess for all females for males is Singh which means lion Now you would say Kaur means prince but that is wrong because who would call a girl a Prince it makes no sense at all I would know this information because I am a girl and I am Sikh
Clarification: The word Kaur means Princess. It is the middle name for all Sikh women and Singh is the Middle name for all Sikh men, which means Lion.Clarification Improved: Kaur and Singh are the Last Names not middle Names. All Sikh men are instructed to end their name with Singh ( Lion ) and all Sikh women to end their names as Kaur meaning ( Princess ). No Surnames allowed to be used with Names as per Sikh Rehat Maryada.However: In today's modern world every Sikh can't have the same last name, so they use it as their middle name instead of using it as their last name.Every Sikh must have same last name ( "singh" or "Kaur" ),whether it is past , present or future. This is the order of Guru Gobind Singh ji to every Sikh. Using caste / surnames along with your name is against the Sikhism.Explanation of above: The word Kaur means Princess. It was instructed by Guru Gobind Singh Ji that all Sikh women have it after their first name. It is used as both a last name and a middle name in different people's cases.For example:Someone can be called Harjeet KaurOrThey can also be called Harjeet Kaur Mahal
The word Pyjama or Pajama derives from a Persian word meaning foot garment. It came into the English language through Britain's time in India from a Hindustani word. In India the garment was used by various classes of women and by Sikh men. Europeans adopted the garment for night attire
