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.”

Bahar

“Directly from the Persian word "bahār" meaning spring — the season of renewal, blossoming flowers, and returning life after winter. Spring is the most celebrated season in Persian poetry and culture, associated with Nowruz (Persian New Year), youth, beauty, and the short-lived intensity of bloom before the heat of summer.”

Kian

“From Old Persian "Kay" or "Kayan", a title of ancient Iranian kings meaning "king" or "royal". The Kayanid dynasty was the legendary ruling house of ancient Iran in the Shahnameh, and names beginning with "Kay" or "Kian" carry connotations of ancient royal dignity. Kian is also related to Avestan "kyā" (being, existence) and in modern Persian is associated with the concept of existence and essence.”

Parveen

“From Persian "Parvīn", the Persian name for the Pleiades star cluster — the seven sisters of Greek mythology, called "Soraya" or "Parveen" in Persian astronomical tradition. The Pleiades were associated with beauty, music, and the spring rains that bring fertility to the earth, making this a name of celestial, poetic beauty.”

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.”

Farhad

“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.”
