Kamalpreet meaning
Kamalpreet (ਕਮਲਪ੍ਰੀਤ) is a Sikh unisex name of Punjabi origin, used for both girls and boys.
Kamal, the lotus, joined with prīt, love
Kamalpreet (ਕਮਲਪ੍ਰੀਤ) joins kamal, the lotus, with prīt, love. The Mahan Kosh gives kamal as the lotus, and also water, and prīt as love and delight. In Sikh scripture the lotus is the image of a life lived in the world but unstained by it; on Ang 938 Guru Nanak likens the devotee to a lotus that stays clean in the water. Name lists give Kamalpreet as love of the lotus. It is used for both girls and boys.
