Siroosha is Persian in Origin.

Siroosha is an Anglicized variant of Persian Soroush (Sorūsh), from Middle Persian Srosh and Avestan Sraosha. The Avestan sraošā- comes from the Indo‑Iranian root “to hear,” giving meanings of “hearkening” and “obedience,” extended to “divine inspiration” or “the voice of God.” In Zoroastrianism, Sraosha is the benevolent yazata of conscience, prayer, and attentive listening, often compared to a Gabriel‑like messenger and psychopomp.

Attested in Avestan hymns and Pahlavi literature, the name endured among Iranian Zoroastrians and Parsis, later gaining wider Persian use as a poetic male given name linked with eloquence and good counsel. Variants include Soroush, Sorush, Soroosh, Suroosh; learned forms Sraosha and Srosh (Srōš); and Sorosch in older European texts. Primarily masculine, it is occasionally unisex in the diaspora.
