Ekroop meaning
Ekroop (ਏਕਰੂਪ) is a Sikh unisex name of Punjabi origin, used for both girls and boys.
Ek (one) joined with rūp (form, beauty)
Also used to mean: one form
Ekroop (ਏਕਰੂਪ) joins ek, one, with rūp, form. The Mahan Kosh gives rūp as shape or appearance and beauty, and as a suffix "made of, identical with"; the Japji uses rūp on Ang 3 of the Guru Granth Sahib. Ekroop reads "of one form", and name lists give "one form" or "one beautiful form". It is a modern name used for both boys and girls.
