Phirouz is Persian in Origin.

Phirouz is a Persian masculine name from Middle Persian Pērōz, meaning “victorious, triumphant, fortunate.” It appears in Sasanian royal titulature - most famously King Peroz I (5th century CE) - and has echoed through Persianate literature and onomastics as a marker of success or divine favor. Through centuries of cultural exchange, the name spread into Arabic- and Turkic-speaking lands and the Indian subcontinent, where it retained its core sense of victory while adapting to local spellings and pronunciation.

Phonetic and regional variants include Firouz, Firooz, Firuz, Piruz/Pirooz, Firoz, Feroz/Feroze, and Peroz; Tajik and Dari often use Firoz. The spelling Phirouz is a modern diaspora transliteration reflecting /f/ with “ph.” Do not confuse it with Fayruz/Fairuz or the feminine Firoozeh/Firouzeh, which derive from fīrūzeh, “turquoise.” As a given name and surname across Iran and South Asia, Phirouz conveys auspicious triumph.
