Name: Guru
Gender: Masculine
Origin: Asia
Language: Indian
Thematic: Ancient
Meaning: Guru means 'the pointer of the way'
The sound 'gu' as a root sound means darkness and 'ru' as a root sound means light. ( a root sound is one from which a multitude of words form taking on its base meaning and character )
Thus a knower of where light is and where darkness is, is The Guru.
He or She merely, and only upon being asked by an aspirant who seeks direction, points the way - there be light and there be darkness.
Contrary to popular myth a true Guru is not a dispenses of great wisdom and epiphanies, but more of a direct existentialist who provides that all critical guidance to traverse the path of life between darkness and light.
When a child is bestowed the name Guru - again contrary to poular myth - it is not to impy the child is The Guru or some such lofty presumptuous notion. The Salutation Guru is always followed by a defining aspect - such as Datta ( thus refering to Lord Dattatreya - who was divinity incarnate and a wandering ascetic ) or Guru Prasad - meaning the bearer of the name is onself the sacred gift bestowed upon the family by The Guru, and so on.
It is almost impossible to find a person named Guru in the Indian social and cultural ethos who carries his name with anything other than a measure of modesty.
Comments: :)
If you want to name or rename youself Guru then it is best not to. Ain't no Guru there who thinks he's or she's one.
If you have no desire to rename yourself Guru and personally find yourself distressed by vanity then it is probably good to stop and consider why it is so ?
