firuzeh

Firuzeh is a Persian feminine given name meaning turquoise. It derives from the Persian word firuz (turquoise) with the feminine suffix -eh, and it is used primarily for girls in Iran and among Persian-speaking communities in the region and in the diaspora. The name is rendered in several transliterations in English, including Firoozeh, Firouzeh, Firozeh, and Firouzé, reflecting differences in Persian pronunciation and transliteration conventions.

Beyond personal naming, Firuzeh also appears in geographic toponyms within Iran. It is used for places such as villages or districts, where the name evokes the turquoise gemstone. The transliteration of these place names can vary in maps and official documents, mirroring the same linguistic roots as the given name.
