Zoroastrianism baby names have positive meanings which make them an excellent choice in baby names. If you need some help in coming up with a Zoroastrian name, you’ve landed at the right place. But before, let’s acquaint you a bit with the Zoroastrians naming tradition.
The Zoroastrians do not have any formal baby naming ceremony. They believe that the destiny of the newborn is marked in the heavens on the sixth day after the birth. They place a sheet of paper, pen, ink, red powder, and coconut near the mother’s bed. It’s on the same day; a name is selected for the baby.
The Zoroastrian baby names can either be derived from the Avesta or can be inspired by the late heroes of Sahnama, or from a relative whose qualities parents want their child to imbibe.
