نسرين
Nisreen (نسرين) is an attested Arabic-Persian female name meaning 'wild rose'. It occurs in Persian poetic diction and has been adopted into Urdu usage in South Asia. Linguistically the form derives from Persian and Arabic roots used for the wild rose, and the name is recognized in modern civil registries and literary records rather than as a Quranic proper name. Because of its floral sense it clusters with other floral and poetic female names; for comparative reference see [[Nisreen]] in poetic anthologies and related names such as [[Yalda]] and [[Narges]] in Persianate onomastic lists. Nisreen's usage is documented in literary sources and contemporary name collections without implying prophetic or scriptural attribution.
