What is the meaning of the name Gururajsingh ?

The baby name Gururajsingh is a Male name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced /ɡuːruːˈrɑːdʒ sɪŋ/ — anglicized: GOO-roo-RAHJ-sing(h).

Gururajsingh is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Gururajsingh blends two Sanskrit-derived elements: Gururaj (guru ‘spiritual teacher’ + rāj/raja ‘king, sovereign’) and Singh (from Sanskrit siṃha ‘lion’), a martial honorific widespread in North India. The combined sense evokes a “lion-like, kingly teacher” or “sovereign among gurus,” conveying spiritual authority, leadership, and courage. Linguistically it travels through Hindi, Punjabi, Marathi, and Kannada, where Gururaj/Gururaja is a well-established masculine given name.

In usage, the unfused Gururaj Singh or Guru Raj Singh is more common, while the concatenated Gururajsingh appears in modern records and the diaspora. Singh has long been borne by Rajput lineages and was mandated for baptized Sikh men in 1699, which boosts the name’s pan-Indian resonance. Variants and related spellings include Gururaj, Gururaja, Guru Raj, Gururaj Singh, and the Singh cognates Sinha and Singha.
