Manroop is a girl's baby name of Sanskrit origin, from the Punjabi/Sanskrit compound man (mind, heart, soul) and roop (beauty, form, appearance), meaning 'beautiful soul' or 'beauty of the mind.' It is a traditional Sikh name celebrating inner spiritual beauty.
Manroop is deeply philosophical and beautiful — a name that declares its bearer's true beauty to be of the soul, not merely the surface.
