About the name Gurmeet

Meet comes from the word for friend, and the idea of friendship with the Guru rather than mere obedience to him is a distinctly Sikh framing. The name has an unhurried, companionable sound that has kept it in use even as flashier -preet compounds took over.

Gurmeet is a unisex name of Punjabi origin, pronounced goor-MEET. On the NameRarity scale it scores 85 out of 100, which places it in the very rare band — a genuinely uncommon pick — most people have never met anyone with this name. Its strongest period was the 1980s.
