Farshid
Farshid (or Farsheed) is one of the most ancient [1] Persian proper names whose philological background could be traced back even in Old Persian scriptures. It consists from two morphemes far (splendour, shine) + shîd (sun, sun beams). In this manner we could translate the Old Persian proper name Farshid/Farsheed as Sunshine or the splendor or the pomp of the sun.[2] This name is commonly used in Iran.
