History & Origin

Rajvir is a Punjabi and Sikh name joining raj ('king, rule') with vir ('brave, warrior'), so 'warrior king' or 'brave king.' Both roots are Sanskrit-derived and common in Sikh naming, and the name appears in U.S. records among Punjabi-American families.

It was never common in the United States, given to only about twenty boys a year even at its peak around 2001, a heritage choice within the Punjabi-Sikh community. A boy named Rajvir then is in his twenties now.

Did you know? The -vir ending, 'brave, warrior,' runs through many Sikh names such as Ranvir and Jasvir, and Rajvir pairs it with raj, 'king,' for a name of royal courage.
