Farzan meaning
Farzan (فرزان) is a Muslim boy's name of Persian origin.
Wise, learned; science, learning; strength, constancy
Also used to mean: intelligent
Farzan (فرزان) is a Persian word that Steingass's dictionary defines as science or learning, strength and constancy, and, as an adjective, wise and learned. It belongs with farzāna, which Steingass gives as a learned man, wise, excellent and intelligent, and which is the source of the girls' name Farzana. Name lists give "wise" or "learned", in line with the dictionary. On the same page Steingass lists an unrelated Arabic firzān, the queen in chess. Farzan is used by Muslim families in India, Pakistan and Iran.
