Jasbir meaning
Jasbir (ਜਸਬੀਰ) is a Sikh unisex name of Punjabi origin, used for both girls and boys.
Jas, praise and renown, joined with bīr, a brave warrior
Also used to mean: brave one who sings God's praises, famous warrior
Jasbir (ਜਸਬੀਰ) joins jas, praise and renown, with bīr, the Punjabi form of vīr, a brave warrior. The Mahan Kosh gives jas as praise, renown and honour, and vīr as a hero or warrior, and also a brother or friend. Read plainly, the name means a warrior of renown. Sikh name lists give it a devotional turn, a brave one who sings God's praises, since jas in Gurbani is so often the praise of God. Jasbir and Jasveer are the same name. It is given to both boys and girls, as Jasbir Singh and Jasbir Kaur.
