Shirin
Persian · “From the Persian word "shīrīn" meaning sweet, pleasant, or charming. Shirin is the heroine of one of the most celebrated love stories in Persian literature — the tale of Khosrow and Shirin by the poet Nizami Ganjavi — in which the Armenian princess Shirin is fought over by the Sassanid king Khosrow II and the sculptor Farhad.”
Nasrin
Persian · “From the Persian word "nasrīn" meaning wild rose or eglantine, referring to the delicate climbing rose that grows in Persian gardens and has been celebrated in Persian poetry for its beauty and fragrance since antiquity. The wild rose is a central symbol of beauty, love, and transience in the Persian poetic tradition.”
Golnaz
Persian · “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.”
Bahar
Persian · “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.”

Rumi
“A honorific epithet meaning "from Rum" (Anatolia/the Byzantine lands), referring to Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Balkhi, the 13th-century Persian Sufi poet and mystic who lived in Konya, Turkey. Rumi is one of the most celebrated poets in history, whose masterwork the Masnavi is called the "Quran in Persian".”
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.”
Tahmina
“A variant of Tahmineh, from Middle Persian meaning "strong" or "mighty one". Tahmina is the Central Asian and Uzbek form of the Persian name, widely used across Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Afghanistan, where the Shahnameh tradition is deeply embedded in culture. The name carries all the associations of Ferdowsi's brave, bold princess who seeks out the hero Rostam.”
Rudabeh
“From Old Persian or Middle Persian, with "Ruda" possibly related to Old Iranian "raodha" meaning growth, or a reference to a river (rud in Persian means river). Rudabeh is the daughter of the King of Kabul in the Shahnameh, who falls in love with the white-haired hero Zal and famously lets down her long hair from the tower window for him to climb — a Persian Rapunzel centuries before the European tale.”
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.”
