What is the meaning of the name Azadeh ?

The baby name Azadeh is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced ah-ZAH-deh (IPA: /ɑːzɒːˈde/).

Azadeh is Persian in Origin.

Azadeh (Persian آزاده, Āzādeh) is a Persian feminine name meaning “free, liberated; noble, freeborn.” It derives from āzād “free, noble” - ultimately from Middle Persian āzāt/āzādag - plus the feminine suffix -eh. The name carries connotations of independence, dignity, and freedom from constraint in Iranian culture.

Attested in classical Persian literature, most memorably as the musician Azadeh in tales of Bahrām Gūr, it has long served as a poetic emblem of grace and candid courage. As a given name it is common in Iran and the Persian-speaking diaspora, and also occurs in Tajik and Afghan Persian (Dari). Ottoman and modern Turkish borrowed the form Azade, and spellings vary in Latin script, including Āzādeh and Azaadeh. Related forms include the masculine Azad. Nicknames include Azi and Azzi. The name saw renewed popularity in the 20th century alongside modern ideals of personal and national freedom.
