Bahram
Persian · “From Avestan "Verethragna", the Zoroastrian deity of victory and the personification of martial triumph, whose name passed through Middle Persian as "Wahram" and then "Bahram". Bahram is a name of kings and heroes in the Shahnameh, most notably Bahram Gur, the legendary Sassanid king celebrated for his hunting prowess and love of poetry.”
Farhad
Persian · “From Old Persian or Middle Persian, meaning "happy" or "joyful prosperity", related to Persian "farr" (divine glory or royal splendor). Farhad is the stonecutter who falls hopelessly in love with Shirin in the Persian epic Khosrow and Shirin by Nizami Ganjavi — his unrequited devotion, expressed through carving a milk canal through a mountain, became the archetype of self-destructive romantic obsession.”

Pirouz
“From Middle Persian "Pērōz" meaning victorious, triumphant, or successful — one of the most ancient and auspicious Persian names, borne by several Sassanid kings, including Peroz I. The name conveys the Persian ideal of military and personal triumph, the one who overcomes obstacles and emerges victorious from every trial.”
Parisa
“From Persian "parī" (fairy, supernatural being of great beauty) and the suffix "-sā" (like, resembling), meaning "like a fairy" or "fairy-faced". The "pari" in Persian mythology is an angelic being of luminous beauty, distinct from the mischievous spirits of Western folklore — they are creatures of light, grace, and divine favor.”
Golnaz
“From Persian "gol" (flower, rose) and "nāz" (coquetry, grace, pride, affectation), meaning "the grace of the flower" or "the coquetry of the rose". In Persian, "nāz" carries a positive connotation of the endearing affectation and playful coyness of a beloved — an untranslatable quality of graceful pride that makes someone irresistible.”
Soraya
“From Persian "Sorayā", the Persian name for the Pleiades star cluster — the same constellation called "Parveen" in classical Persian poetry. The Pleiades were used to mark seasons for agriculture and navigation, and their Persian name carries associations of celestial beauty, rare clustering of brilliance, and the melancholy beauty of distant stars.”
