About the name Charanjit

Charan means feet, and touching a teacher's feet is the gesture of humility the whole name is built around, so the victory it names is a victory of surrender. The Bombay session musician Charanjit Singh has given it an unlikely second life among electronic music collectors.

Charanjit is a boy name of Punjabi origin, pronounced CHUR-un-jeet. On the NameRarity scale it scores 93 out of 100, which places it in the ultra rare band — fewer than 1 in 10,000 people carry this name. You will almost never meet another. Its strongest period was the 1970s.
