Piroz is Persian in Origin.
From Iranian languages, Piroz combines two closely linked senses. In Kurdish (Pîroz), it denotes “holy,” “blessed,” and by extension “festive; congratulations,” a word heard in greetings like pîroz be. In Persian (Piruz/Pirouz/Pirooz; پیروز), it means “victorious,” inherited from Middle Persian pērōz, famously borne by the Sasanian monarch Peroz I (5th century). The name is used across Kurdish and Persian-speaking communities and, through historical contact, spread into the Caucasus and South Asia.
Variants include Pîroz (Kurdish), Piruz/Pirouz/Pirooz and historical Peroz (Persian), plus Arabic-Urdu adaptations Firoz/Firuz/Feroz/Firouz, reflecting the shift from p to f. Related feminine forms seen regionally are Pirouzeh and Firuzeh (often “turquoise” in meaning). The blend of “victory” and “blessing” gives Piroz an auspicious tone, suited to parents seeking a concise, cross-cultural Iranian name with both sacred and triumphant associations.
