Nazish meaning
Nazish (نازش) is a Muslim girl's name of Persian origin (Urdu usage).
Glory, exaltation, eminence; pride, boasting
Also used to mean: elegance
Nazish (نازش) is a Persian noun formed from nāz, the word behind the name Naaz. Steingass's dictionary gives nāzish as glory, exaltation and eminence, and then as boasting and blandishment. Name lists give Nazish as "pride" or "glory", which matches the first senses, and some add "elegance", which comes from the wider meaning of nāz. In Urdu verse it is used much like nāz itself. The name is used mainly by Urdu-speaking families in India and Pakistan.
