Pyare

Pyare is a name of South Asian origin that is used as a masculine given name and, in some contexts, as a term of endearment. The word derives from pyār, meaning “beloved” or “dear” in Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi, and related languages, and it is commonly found in personal names and affectionate forms of address.

In given-name usage, Pyare often appears in compound names such as Pyare Lal, Pyare Singh, or Pyare Ram, reflecting a naming pattern in which an affectionate element is paired with another personal name. Beyond personal naming, Pyare can also appear in literature and devotional or social contexts as a form of address to someone regarded with affection or respect, or as part of character names.

Spelling and transliteration vary in English-language texts. Common renderings include Pyare, Pyāre, Pyār, or Pyar, with diacritics used to indicate vowel length in languages that distinguish it. The name can be encountered across India, Pakistan, and diaspora communities, sometimes with regional variations in pronunciation and usage.

Notable individuals with the given name Pyare exist within Indian and Pakistani communities, but no single person is universally identified with the name in an international context. The term Pyare is not associated with a specific organization, product, or concept beyond its use as a personal name and term of endearment.
