Name meaning and origin

Nazanin is a female name of Persian origin. At its root lies the word "naz" (coquetry, allure, delicacy), and with the addition of a suffix that adds an endearing tone it means "the delicate, charming, refined beauty." In classical Persian poetry this word was widely used to describe the beloved's delicacy and charm.

In Azerbaijan Nazanin is loved both as an affectionate term of address and as a girl name. It belongs to the same family as names born from the root 'naz', such as Nazpari, Parinaz, and Nazli. It does not appear directly in the Quran, but from an Islamic standpoint there is no prohibition on the name.
