Sargun meaning
Sargun (ਸਰਗੁਣ) is a Sikh girl's name of Punjabi origin (from Sanskrit).
Endowed with qualities or attributes; God manifest in creation
Also used to mean: virtuous, with good qualities
Sargun (ਸਰਗੁਣ) is formed from sa-, "with", and guṇ, quality or attribute. The Mahan Kosh defines it as endowed with qualities, including the three qualities of the material world, and as possessing skill or knowledge. In the Guru Granth Sahib sargun describes God as manifest in creation, with attributes, alongside nirgun, God beyond all attributes; Guru Arjan uses the pair at Ang 367 and elsewhere. Name lists give "virtuous" or "one with good qualities". It is a girls' name in Sikh families; a well-known bearer is the actress Sargun Mehta.
