More Persian names
Kamran
“From Persian "kāmrān" meaning successful, fortunate, or one whose wishes have been fulfilled, derived from "kām" (wish, desire) and "rān" (possessing, ruling). The name conveys the Persian ideal of a man blessed by fortune who achieves the goals he sets for himself.”
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.”
Sohrab
“From Old Persian or Middle Persian, possibly meaning "red water" or "brilliant red" (from "sūr" meaning red/brilliant and "āb" meaning water). Sohrab is the tragic son of Rostam in the Shahnameh — a young hero of extraordinary bravery who travels to find his father, only to meet him in single combat, where neither recognizes the other until Sohrab is mortally wounded.”
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.”
Fereydun
“From Old Iranian "Thraetaona" or Avestan "Θraētaona", a name of ancient mythological resonance connected to the concept of the threefold power of the universe. Fereydun is the heroic king of the Shahnameh who slays the serpent-tyrant Zahhak with the divine club (gorz), divides his kingdom between his three sons, and whose story echoes the most ancient Indo-Iranian mythological patterns.”
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.”
