What is the meaning of the name Shokufeh ?

The baby name Shokufeh is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced sho-KOO-feh (IPA: /ʃoˈkuːfe/).

Shokufeh is Persian in Origin.

Shokufeh (Persian: شکوفه, pronounced sho-koo-feh) is a Persian feminine name meaning “blossom” or “bloom.” It derives from the common Persian noun shokufe/shokofeh, a poetic emblem of springtime and renewal frequently found in classical Persian verse. The image of trees bursting into blossom links the name to Nowruz, the Persian New Year, and to themes of beauty, vitality, and hopeful beginnings.

As a given name, Shokufeh rose in use during the 20th century in Iran and remains familiar across Persian-speaking communities. It also appears in Afghanistan and Tajikistan as Shukufa/Shukufa, and entered Ottoman Turkish as Şükufe/Şükûfe. Modern transliterations vary - Shokoufeh, Shokoofeh, Shokofeh, and Shokufe - reflecting attempts to render the long “u” sound. Related Persian nature names include Bahar (“spring”) and Golnaz/Goli (“flower”). Shokufeh’s enduring appeal lies in its gentle symbolism of growth, freshness, and the promise of new life.
