Peyman

Peyman is a word of Persian origin that means an oath, vow, or a given word; its root is connected to the word peyman and was often used in classical Persian literature to express the pledge of loyalty given to a beloved. The name has historically been known as a man's name in Iran and the Turkic-speaking countries and remains widespread today.

Although Peyman is sometimes recorded as a woman's name in Azerbaijani onomastic sources, the majority of Persian and Turkish sources present it as a traditional boy name; the famous Iranian actor Peyman Maadi shows how well known this name is in the masculine. Since its meaning relates to loyalty and keeping one's word, the name imparts a quality of reliability to its bearer.
