About Jind

This short and distinct unisex Indian name is one to add to the appealing list of lively names meaning "life". It was a fast rising choice in Canada and the UK in recent years, perhaps owing to the 2022 Punjabi movie, Jind Mahi.

Jind is also a district and city in India, which takes its name from Jaintapuri meaning "abode of Jainti Devi", the goddess of victory. As such, it is a name with double meaning.

Pronounced JIND.

As of October 2026, Jind ranked #2523 in US births in 2025 SSA.
