What is the meaning of the name Parveen ?

The baby name Parveen is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced par-VEEN (IPA: /pɑrˈviːn/ or /pərˈviːn/).

Parveen is Persian in Origin.

Parveen is a Persian-derived given name from Parvīn (Persian: پروین), the traditional word for the Pleiades star cluster. In Persian and Urdu poetry it evokes brilliance, grace, and celestial guidance, which helped it gain favor as a personal name. The name appears in classical literature as an astronomical term and rose in modern prominence through figures such as the Iranian poet Parvin E’tesami (1907–1941). Through Persian influence it spread into Urdu and other South Asian languages, where it is widely used among Muslim communities.

Regional forms include Parvin (Iran), Parveen (Urdu/Hindi), Pervin (Turkish and Bangla), Parween (Pashto), and Pərvin (Azerbaijani, often used for males). While primarily feminine in Persian, Urdu, and Turkish usage, it can be unisex in parts of the Caucasus and Central Asia. Not to be confused with the unrelated Sanskrit name Praveen/Pravin, which means “skilled” or “proficient.”
