Pyarelal as a Baby Name. Meaning and Origin of Pyarelal

What is the meaning of the name Pyarelal ?

The baby name Pyarelal is a Male name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /pjaːreːlaːl/ (approx. "PYA-reh-lahl").

Pyarelal is Hindi, Sanskrit in Origin.

Pyarelal is a North Indian compound given name from Hindustani/Punjabi pyāre “dear, beloved” (ultimately from Sanskrit priya via Prakrit piyāra) + Lāl, a Hindi element meaning “boy/son,” “beloved,” and “ruby” (from lāl “red”). It thus means “beloved son” or “dear one, precious as a ruby.” Written as प्यारेलाल in Devanagari and پیارے لال in Urdu.

Used across Hindi- and Punjabi-speaking regions since the late 19th century, it rose in 20th‑century popularity and is well known via composer Pyarelal Sharma of Laxmikant–Pyarelal. Variants include Pyare Lal, Piare Lal, Piara Lal, Piyarelal, and Pyarilal; short forms Pyare/Piara, with feminine counterpart Pyari (often Pyari Devi). As -lal compounds have waned in modern naming, Pyarelal survives as an affectionate, tradition‑minded choice in North India and the diaspora.
