Tajjan

Tajjan is a surname of Indian origin, particularly prevalent in the Punjab region. Its etymology is often linked to the word "taj," meaning crown, suggesting a historical association with royalty or high status. The Tajjan community is primarily Sikh, though individuals with this surname may also be Hindu or Muslim. Historically, the Tajjans were known for their agricultural practices and land ownership. Over time, as with many communities, there has been a diversification of professions and geographical distribution. Many Tajjans have migrated to urban centers within India and also to other countries, including Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States, seeking economic opportunities and educational advancements. The surname is not associated with a specific caste or sub-caste in the traditional sense, but rather reflects a familial lineage. Contemporary Tajjans are found in a wide array of fields, including business, academia, technology, and the arts. The name itself is generally considered a mark of identity and heritage for those who carry it.
