http://lcweb.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/englangn.html, which is the page
of the official registration authority for language codes, calls the
language "Panjabi".

The Merriam-Webster dictionary (http://www.m-w.com/) lists both
"Panjabi" and "Punjabi" as alternative forms. However, as the official
registration authority uses "Panjabi", I'd say we should probably use
that.
