Meaning not confirmed

In the dictionaries

We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself.

Tarsem (ਤਰਸੇਮ) is a Punjabi name, carried by men in Sikh and Punjabi Hindu families. Its origin is unclear. It is not entered in the Mahan Kosh, and we could not find it or a convincing root in the dictionaries we use. One name site gives "star" or "shining one", but we found no support for that elsewhere, so we give no meaning. Well-known bearers include the film director Tarsem Singh, known for The Cell and The Fall, and the Punjabi singer and actor Tarsem Jassar.
