What is the meaning of the name Nargiza ?

The baby name Nargiza is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /nɑrˈɡiːzə/ (nar-GEE-zah).

Nargiza is Persian in Origin.

Nargiza is a Central Asian female given name from Persian Narges/Nargis (نرگس), the word for the narcissus/daffodil. The flower has long symbolized alluring eyes, beauty, and the bittersweet gaze in classical Persian verse by poets such as Hafez and Saadi, helping the name travel across the Persianate world and along the Silk Road. In Uzbek and Tajik, the form with the -a ending - often via Russian orthographic influence - became standard, and the name has been widely used since the 20th century in Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan.

Variants and cognates include Nargis and Narges (Persian, Urdu/Hindi), Nergis (Turkish), and Nargiz (Azerbaijani/Russian-influenced). Tajik records also show Nargisa. All forms share the same floral meaning, evoking grace and bright, star-like eyes. The name remains common in Central Asia and among diaspora communities, appreciated for its gentle sound and springtime imagery.
