“From Persian "Mirzā", a contraction of "Amīrzādeh" meaning "born of a prince" or "son of a prince/lord" — from "amir" (prince) and "zādeh" (born of, son of).

Scheherazade
“From Persian "Shahrazad", compounded from "shahr" (city) and "azad" (free, noble-born), meaning "city-born" or "of noble urban lineage".
