The names "Singh" and "Kaur" were first given to Sikhs by their tenth Guru, Guru Gobind Singh Ji, to be used as last name, thus eliminating any caste distinction. They were never used by Sikhs but as middle names.

All Sikh men use Singh as their middle name. Singh means Lion, signifying bravery.

All Sikh women use Kaur as their middle name. Kaur means Princess, signifying beauty.
