Firuz (Persian: فیروز; classical form Piruz/پیروز) is a historically attested Persian personal name meaning 'victorious' or 'successful'. Etymologically it comes from Middle Persian pērōz/pīrōz, which passed into New Persian as pīrūz/پيروز and Arabicized as Fīrūz (فيروز). The name is borne by historical figures in Persianate histories and by later Muslim administrators and poets; it also appears as part of compound regnal names (e.g., several medieval rulers used derived forms). Linguistically, the name conveys victory, success, and prosperity, and culturally it is linked with the turquoise gemstone (also called fīrūz in regional usage). For families seeking a Sufi-tinged or classical Persian Muslim name, Firuz is a real, attested choice that balances poetic resonance with historical legitimacy. Related names in the same cultural register include [[Mazhar]] (manifestation) and [[Mansur]] (victorious in Arabic), which share Persian–Arabic Sufi and courtly associations.
