Kaur (Punjabi: ਕੌਰ [Gurmukhi] / کور [Shahmukhi]; lit.'crown prince[ss]' or 'spiritual prince[ss]'),[1] sometimes spelled as Kour, is a surname or a part of a personal name primarily used by the Sikh and some Hindu women of the Punjab region.[2] It is also sometimes translated as 'lioness', not because this meaning is etymologically derived from the name, but as a parallel to the Sikh male name Singh, which means 'lion'.
