Arjumand meaning
Arjumand (ارجمند) is a Muslim girl's name of Persian origin (Urdu usage).
Precious, excellent, of great worth; noble, beloved
Arjumand (ارجمند) is Persian arjmand, "of great worth", built from arj, "value". Steingass' Persian dictionary defines it as rare, excellent, precious and exquisite, and also as beloved, noble and wise, and notes Arjmand Bānū, "noble lady", as a woman's name. The best-known bearer is Arjumand Banu Begum, the Mughal empress remembered as Mumtaz Mahal, for whom Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal in Agra. Name lists give Arjumand as "precious" or "noble", in line with the dictionary.
