Firoze is Persian in Origin.
Firoze is a Persian-derived masculine name whose root is Middle Persian pērōz, meaning “victorious, triumphant, fortunate.” Through New Persian Piruz/Firuz, it traveled across the Persianate world into Arabic, Turkic, and South Asian languages; in Urdu and Hindi it appears as Firoz/Feroze, while the spelling Firoze is a South Asian Anglicized form. A related but distinct Persian word, fīrūzeh, names the turquoise gemstone; this has fostered a secondary folk association with good fortune and protection.
The name has deep historical resonance: Sasanian monarch Peroz I (5th century) bore its earlier form, and later figures include Delhi Sultan Firuz Shah Tughlaq. In modern South Asia it occurs among Muslims and Parsis; one notable bearer was Indian politician Feroze Gandhi. Common variants include Firoz, Feroze, Firuz, Firouz, Piruz, Pirooz, Peroz/Pērōz, and the feminine counterparts Firuze/Firuzeh; related forms for the gemstone are Firoza/Feroza. Core meaning: victorious, successful, auspicious.
