Parvaz is Persian in Origin.
From Persian parvāz (پرواز), a noun meaning “flight, soaring, ascent,” Parvaz carries evocations of freedom, aspiration, and taking wing. The term entered Urdu and Hindi via Persian and is common in poetry and Sufi imagery, where it suggests spiritual elevation and bold ambition. As a given name it is typically pronounced par-WAAZ and is used as a unisex choice, with slightly greater use for boys in South Asia and among the diaspora.
Parvaz gained visibility as a modern, poetic name in the 20th century, particularly in Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh; in Iran it is better known as a word than a personal name. Spellings vary by transliteration: Parwaaz, Parwaz, and Parvaaz are all encountered. Do not confuse it with Parviz/Parvez (Parvēz), a separate Persian name meaning “fortunate” or “victorious.” The concise meaning of Parvaz remains “flight; soaring; rise.”
