Answer: Guru Gobind Singh declared them the first five members of the Khalsa and they became known as the Panj Pyare , which means the five beloved ones. The Guru declared that Sikh men would take the surname 'Singh' which means lion. His own name changed from this point from Guru Gobind Rai to Guru Gobind Singh.
