Noushin is Persian in Origin.

Noushin is a Persian feminine given name, written نوشین. It stems from the Persian element nush (from the verb nushidan “to drink; to savor”), associated in poetry with sweetness and pleasantness; as an adjective, noushin means “sweet, delightful, agreeable.” The name evokes something enjoyable to taste or experience, akin to the phrase nush-e jan (“enjoy, with health”).

Widespread in Iran throughout the 20th century and today, the name also travelled with Persianate culture into Urdu- and Bengali-speaking communities, where it remains popular. It appears in classical and modern Persian literature as an epithet for sweetness and grace, and has been used both as a given name and, less commonly, as a surname or stage name. Common variants and spellings include Nooshin, Nushin, Noshin, Nowshin, Nawshin, Naushin, and Nausheen; differences reflect attempts to capture the long ū and the sh sound in Latin script.
