History & Origin

Arshman is a modern Persian- and Urdu-styled boys' name used in Pakistan, Iran and the diaspora. Its front element arsh means 'throne' and, in Islamic usage, the divine throne or highest heaven. The -man close is not securely accounted for in this compound, so we give the common reading and mark the uncertainty (said 'ARSH-mun').

It is very rare for boys in the U.S., carried mainly by South Asian and Iranian families. Rare, elevated, and modern.

Did you know? The arsh in Arshman is a weighty word — in Islamic usage it names the divine throne, the highest heaven. The -man ending, though, is not securely explained in this compound, which we note honestly (said 'ARSH-mun').
