67 Parsi Baby Girl Names With Meanings

The Parsi community represents people from a distinct religious and ethnic group who follow the Zoroastrian faith. Parsi baby girl names often carry deep meanings and reflect their religious and cultural heritage. These names represent Zoroastrian values that add a unique touch to your child's identity. Parsis or Parsees, also known as Zoroastrians, are of Indo-Iranian origin. It is said that they came to Medieval India during and after the Arab conquest of the Persian Empire and were mainly settled in Gujarat. However, many shifted to Mumbai during British rule in the mid-to-late 18th century (1). Therefore, Parsi names often have an essence of Iranian, Arabic, Indian, and English languages, which enhances their global appeal. Armaiti, for instance, is a Persian name of Urdu origin that means 'thought or devotion.' Many Parsi names are also derived from the Persian literature book, the Shahnameh or "Epic of Kings." Gordafarid is the name of the Iranian heroine from the Shahnameh who fought against Sohrab (2). Many Parsi names also draw inspiration from nature, such as Rudabeh, a nature-inspired name that means 'river' or 'torrent.' This name also has a mythological association and has also been mentioned in the 10th-century Persian epic poem Shahnameh. In addition to their rich cultural associations and profound meanings, Parsi names also have melodic tunes which might inspire you to select one of them for your baby girl.
