Alireza

Alireza is a masculine given name of Persian origin, common in Iran and among Persian-speaking communities. It is formed from two elements, Ali and Reza, with Ali of Arabic origin meaning "noble" or "exalted" and Reza of Persian origin meaning "contentment" or "consent." The name is frequently transliterated as Alireza or Ali Reza and is used in various languages and scripts within the region and in the diaspora.

In Iran and neighboring countries, Alireza is a popular modern given name and is chosen for its traditional associations. It is also found among communities in Europe, the Americas, and the Gulf states, reflecting migration and cultural exchange. As with many Persian names, individuals named Alireza may be known by different spellings in international contexts.

Notable people with the name include the Iranian-French chess grandmaster Alireza Firouzja (born 2003); the Iranian footballer Alireza Jahanbakhsh (born 1993); and the Iranian football goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand (born 1992).
