Manjeet Singh is Punjabi in Origin.
Manjeet Singh is a Punjabi–Sanskrit compound name. Manjeet (from man ‘mind/heart’ + jeet ‘victory’) means ‘conqueror of the mind’ or ‘victory over the self’, found in Gurmukhi as ਮਨਜੀਤ and in Hindi as मंजीत. Singh, from Sanskrit siṃha ‘lion’, became the mandatory male surname for initiated Sikhs when Guru Gobind Singh founded the Khalsa in 1699, and is also used by various North Indian communities.
Used widely in Punjabi and Sikh families, the given name resonates with the celebrated line man jeetai jag jeet (‘conquer the mind, conquer the world’) from the Guru Granth Sahib, reinforcing its devotional tone. Variants and spellings include Manjit, Manjeeth, and Manjith; the name is unisex but more common for men in Sikh contexts. Common nicknames are Jeet and Manny. Related -jeet names include Harjeet, Gurjeet, and Rajjeet; broader cognates in meaning are Ajit and Vijay.
