Manpreet is Punjabi in Origin.
Manpreet is a unisex Punjabi Sikh given name formed from man “mind, heart” + preet “love, affection,” ultimately from Sanskrit manas and prīti. The composite sense is “love of the heart/mind,” often understood in Sikh thought as loving devotion held within one’s inner being or love for the Divine that dwells in the mind.
Used widely in Punjab and the Sikh diaspora (UK, Canada, U.S.), Manpreet became especially common through the 20th century, typically paired with the surnames Singh (male) or Kaur (female). It is written ਮਨਪ੍ਰੀਤ in Gurmukhi; short forms include Preet, Mani, and Manny. Close cognates and thematic variants include Gurpreet, Harpreet, Sukhpreet, Navpreet, and Jaspreet; less common transliterations like Manpreeth or Munpreet also occur. The name is often selected during the Sikh naming ceremony (Naam Karan) when a hukam (scriptural verse) provides the initial letter.
