The name Gorakh is derived from the Sindhi language in which, the word "Gorakhnath" refers to a Hindu saint associated with the deity Shiva and that Balochi-language word "Gurkh" is later dialectic adaptation of Sindhi-language word Gorakh. but there is no connection of Persian Gurg and Balochi Gurkh means wolf with word of Sindh language. It is believed that the name is derived from original word Gorakh either of Sanskrit or Sindhi language which means very difficult and intricate.
