Nousheen is Persian in Origin.

Nousheen is a feminine given name of Persian origin, from Persian/Urdu نوشین (nūšīn), an adjective meaning “sweet, delightful, pleasant,” linked to the root nūš/nosh (“sweetness; to enjoy, to drink,” as in the toast nush-e jān). It entered Urdu and other South Asian languages through Persian cultural influence and remains popular among Muslim communities in Iran, Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh, as well as their diasporas.

Usage as a personal name appears in 20th‑century Iran and spread widely in South Asia, aided by Urdu poetry and media; the adjective itself occurs in classical Persian verse for beloveds and sweet things. Common variants include Nooshin, Noshin, Nosheen, Nushin, Naushin, Nowshin, and Noushin; diminutives such as Noosh or Nushi occur informally. The name carries connotations of sweetness, charm, and pleasant demeanor, making it a favored choice for girls.
