Behrouz is Persian in Origin.
Behrouz is a Persian masculine name, written بهروز in Perso-Arabic script and pronounced [behɾuːz]. Its earliest secure form is the New Persian compound beh-rūz, built from beh, a comparative/adjectival form meaning good or better, and rūz, day. Literally, it denotes good day; idiomatically in Persian naming it carries the sense fortunate, prosperous, or having auspicious days.
The name belongs chiefly to Iranian and Persianate usage, with spellings such as Behrooz and Behruz reflecting different romanization habits rather than separate names. It appears among modern Iranian public figures, including actor Behrouz Vossoughi and writer Behrouz Boochani, and also occurs in Kurdish and Tajik contexts. In South Asian Muslim communities it may be recognized as an Islamicate Persian name, though it is not Quranic.
