Meaning of Dilsher
Dilsher is a masculine given name of Punjabi origin, stemming from the Persian elements dil (“heart”) and sher (“lion”), which together denote “lion-hearted.” In Punjabi, it is pronounced dil-sher (/dɪl-ʃər/). Traditionally favored in Sikh communities for its association with courage and steadfastness, Dilsher has seen modest but stable adoption in the United States, with nine to ten annual occurrences and rankings oscillating narrowly between 909 and 933 from 2019 to 2024. This consistency indicates a name that appeals to parents seeking a distinctive yet accessible choice, combining clear phonetic structure with substantive meaning.
