Pirouze is Persian in Origin.
Pirouze is a Persian given name, most often a French-style transliteration of Pīrūzeh/Fīrūzeh or a feminine form related to Pīrūz. It descends from Middle Persian pērōz “victorious,” while New Persian fīrūzeh also denotes “turquoise,” the protective blue-green gemstone. Because Persian alternates p/f in different periods and languages, Pirouze and Firouzeh share the same etymon and carry connotations of triumph, luck, and warding off harm.
The name appears in Iranian and wider Persianate history: Pērōz (Peroz) I was a 5th‑century Sasanian king, and forms like Firuze/Firuza show up in medieval Persian and Ottoman records. In Turkish today, Firuze is a familiar feminine name; in South Asia, Feroze/Firuz is usually masculine. Modern variants include Pirouz, Pirooz, Peroz, Firuz, Firouz, Feroze, Firuza, Feroza, Firuze, and Firouzeh. Pirouze remains uncommon but elegant, blending a victorious meaning with the luminous image of turquoise.
Pirouze turns up in none of the birth registries or name datasets we cover. It's the kind of name that tends to be rare, regional, or newly made up. Whichever it is, scarcely anyone else carries it.
