Origin
Meaning and history of Agampreet
The name Agampreet has its origins in the Indian subcontinent, specifically in the Punjabi language and Sikh culture. The name is a combination of two words from the Punjabi language: "Agam" and "Preet." "Agam" means "unfathomable" or "infinite," while "Preet" means "love" or "affection." Together, the name Agampreet can be translated as "love for the infinite" or "love for the divine."
The name Agampreet is closely associated with the teachings of Sikhism, a monotheistic religion that originated in the Punjab region of the Indian subcontinent during the 15th century. The name reflects the Sikh belief in the infinite and eternal nature of the divine, as well as the importance of cultivating love and devotion towards the divine presence.
While the exact origin of the name Agampreet is uncertain, it is believed to have gained popularity among Sikh communities during the 17th and 18th centuries. During this period, the Sikh Gurus and other religious leaders emphasized the importance of spiritual devotion and love for the divine, which may have contributed to the widespread adoption of names like Agampreet.
One of the earliest recorded uses of the name Agampreet can be found in the writings of Bhai Gurdas, a prominent Sikh scholar and poet who lived in the 16th and 17th centuries. In his literary works, Bhai Gurdas often used the term "Agam" to refer to the infinite and transcendent nature of the divine.
Throughout history, several notable individuals have borne the name Agampreet, including:
1. Agampreet Kaur (born 1985), an Indian athlete and former national-level sprinter.
2. Agampreet Singh (born 1993), an Indian cricketer who has represented Punjab in domestic cricket tournaments.
3. Agampreet Kaur (born 1988), an Indian singer and songwriter known for her contributions to Punjabi music.
4. Agampreet Singh Randhawa (born 1991), an Indian entrepreneur and co-founder of a successful software company.
5. Agampreet Kaur Bhatia (born 1978), an Indian academic and author who has published several books on Sikh history and culture.
While the name Agampreet has its roots in the Punjabi language and Sikh tradition, it has gained popularity among various communities across India and around the world. The name continues to be a reminder of the spiritual and cultural values associated with love, devotion, and the pursuit of the infinite.

FAQ
Agampreet: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Agampreet?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 5 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Agampreet going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables. The result is an age-weighted living-bearer count, not a raw birth total. That works out to about 1 in 68,550,868 US residents.
Is Agampreet a common name?
We classify Agampreet as "Very Rare". It ranks above 18.2% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 5 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Agampreet most popular?
The single biggest year for Agampreet was 2019, when 5 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Agampreet is about 7 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Agampreet in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Agampreet a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Agampreet in the SSA data are male. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Agampreet still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Agampreet in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Agampreet can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only covers names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files do not have a published Census demographic snapshot. In those cases, the page still shows the SSA trend, gender history, and state data.
