	Kaur - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kaur, which means "prince" in Punjabi, is widely used as a name by female Sikhs.
		Some Sikhs today have chosen to retain their traditional caste-system family names in addition to the suffix Kaur or Singh, even though this defeats the purpose of Guru Gobind's mission in requiring a standardised naming system.
		It is encouraged that all those of the Sikh faith should follow one faith and abolish the caste system as this was the whole point of using the surnames 'Singh' and 'Kaur', the other names commonly used are 'Khalsa', meaning that person belongs to the Khalsa.
