Names starting with E/A

ਏਕੁਪਿਤਾਏਕਸਕੇਹਮਬਾਰਿਕਤੂਮੇਰਾਗੁਰਹਾਈ ॥

was the hukamnama for my niece.

I guess we can spell ਏਕੁ as Ek or Aek/Aik so post names with E or A

Ikaagar Kaur

My favourite are:

ਇੰਕਲਾਬ ਕੌਰ

ਈਮਾਨ ਕੌਰ

ਈਸ਼ਰ ਕੌਰ

ਇਤਬਾਰ ਕੌਰ

ਇਤਮੀਨਾਨ ਕੌਰ

ਇਕਰਾਰ ਕੌਰ

I think such name should be chosen that starts with the alphabet "EeRee" because the Hukamnama Sahib starts with it.

I think it is also important to look at the essence of the whole shabad when choosing the name, not just the first letter.

My favorite name with an I is Ishar

Ek Onkar
Ekman
Ekam
EkRoop Liv Lavhu
EkoNaam
ishpreet
ishmeet


On a side note I was wondering is it wrong to name a child after Guru Sahib ex Nanak, Arjan, Gobind? I think it would be a blessing to have such a name but many people are against this?

my favorites...

ਏਕਜੋਤ ਕੌ੍ਰ
ਏਕਰੂਪ ਕੌਰ

I think keeping in mind the respect for Guru Sahib names such as "Nanak", "Gobind", "Tegh Bahadur" "Vaheguru" etc. should be avoided. In a village a boy was named "Vaheguru Singh" and his uneducated, rural mother was heard saying, "ਟੁੱਟ ਪੈਣਾ ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਪਤਾ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਿਥੇ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ।" Forgive me for writing this but this happens often. Mothers and grandmothers call their children with such names as written above. It does not seem right to name your kids after Guru Sahib's names.

Guru Pyareo,

thanks to everyone! My sister has named her daughter ਏਕਮ ਕੌਰ (Aekum Kaur).

I agree that some times Gods name can be used in vain when uses as a childs name, but at the same time I feel like it can be a major blessing. My cousin named his son Raam and he is one of the most happiest children I have ever met. Whenever someone calls his name he gets to listen to Gods name. The person who calls his name gets their tongue purified as well. How blessed is the house that recites Gods name!
