Jagroop meaning
Jagroop (ਜਗਰੂਪ) is a Sikh boy's name of Punjabi origin.
Jag (the world) joined with rūp (form, beauty)
Jagroop (ਜਗਰੂਪ) joins jag with rūp. Jag is the world or universe, from Sanskrit jagat, and the Japji uses it on Ang 6 in the line that one who conquers the mind conquers the world. Rūp, which the Mahan Kosh gives as form, shape, appearance and beauty, also means "made of" or "one with" at the end of a compound. The name can therefore be read as the form of the world or the beauty of the world, and name lists give "embodiment of the world". It is a traditional Sikh boys' name, also spelled Jagrup. The full name is not a Mahan Kosh headword, so its meaning is read from its two parts.
