Meaning & Origin

Sukhmani is a girl's baby name of Punjabi origin, from the Sikh tradition — the Sukhmani Sahib is a revered composition by Guru Arjan Dev Ji, the fifth Sikh Guru, meaning 'jewel of peace' or 'peace of mind' from sukh (peace, happiness) and mani (jewel, gem).

The Sukhmani Sahib is recited daily by millions of Sikhs worldwide as a prayer for peace and spiritual solace. To name a daughter Sukhmani is to give her a name that is itself a prayer — she carries the gem of peace within her name from her very first breath.
