Gurdas is Punjabi in Origin.
Rooted in Punjabi and Sikh tradition, Gurdas combines Gur (from Sanskrit guru, “spiritual teacher”) and dās (Sanskrit dāsa, “servant, devotee”), yielding the meaning “servant of the Guru” or “one devoted to the spiritual guide.” In Gurmukhi it is written ਗੁਰਦਾਸ. The name carries associations of humility, learning, and selfless service (seva) central to Sikh ethics.
Its profile is shaped by the eminent Bhai Gurdas (c. 1551–1636), scholar-poet and principal scribe of the Adi Granth, which anchored the name in Sikh history. Usage remains common in Punjab and among the global Sikh diaspora. Variant spellings include Gurdass and Gurdaas; the closely related pan-Indian form is Gurudas (Devanagari: गुरुदास, Bengali: গুরুদাস). It is often paired with the honorific surname Singh in male full names, and informal diminutives such as Guri may appear in family use.
