Manijeh

From Middle Persian "Manizha" or "Manijeh", possibly meaning "shining" or "precious jewel" — a name associated with light and rare value. In the Shahnameh, Manijeh is the Turanian princess who falls in love with the Iranian hero Bijan, hides him in a pit to save his life, and endures great suffering to keep him alive — one of Ferdowsi's most moving portraits of female devotion.

Leila

The Persian form of the Arabic Layla, from the root meaning night, conveying dark beauty, mystery, and longing. In Persian Sufi poetry, Leila represents the divine beloved — the soul's yearning for union with God is expressed as the madman Majnun's endless, hopeless love for Leila.

Kaveh

From Avestan "Kavi" or Old Persian "Kāva", relating to the ancient priestly-royal caste of seers in Iranian tradition. In the Shahnameh, Kaveh the Blacksmith is the heroic commoner who rises against the serpent tyrant Zahhak and whose leather apron, raised as a standard, becomes the legendary Derafsh Kaviani — the royal banner of Persia for over a thousand years.

Shahram

From Old Persian and Middle Persian "shāh" (king) and "rām" (peaceful, tranquil, happy), meaning "peaceful king" or "king of peace". The name Rām is also associated with the Zoroastrian deity of joy and peace, giving the name a spiritual resonance in Persian tradition.

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.

Jasper

Jasper is a masculine given name of Persian origin, derived from the Old Persian yashp meaning "treasurer." It became widely used in medieval Europe through the tradition of naming one of the Three Wise Men Jasper (or Caspar). The name has no etymological connection to the gemstone jasper, which derives from a different root.
