    The city of Sialkot, in present day Pakistan was originally founded as a fort by Raja Salban in the second century. Salban had two wives, the second of which he loved very much. She gave Salban his first born son and heir Puran, after whom Puran's Well is named. 

   
   

   The name Queen City is likely derived from Salban's two queens and their complicated story with Puran. More can be read here:
