Amanpreet meaning
Amanpreet (ਅਮਨਪ੍ਰੀਤ) is a Sikh unisex name of Punjabi origin, used for both girls and boys.
Aman (peace) joined with prīti (love)
Also used to mean: lover of peace, peace and love
Amanpreet (ਅਮਨਪ੍ਰੀਤ) pairs aman, an Arabic loanword that the Mahan Kosh defines as peace, rest and ease, with prīt, love, from Sanskrit prīti. Prīti is a common word in the Guru Granth Sahib, for example on Ang 82. Name lists usually render the whole as "lover of peace" or simply "peace and love", both fair readings of the two parts. Like many Sikh names it is unisex: Amanpreet Kaur and Amanpreet Singh are both used.
