Nasli
Pronounced NAHS-lee /ˈnɑs.li/Medium
Meaning: Nasli is used chiefly among Parsi and Persian-speaking families. It is generally connected to nasl, an Arabic word taken into Persian and Urdu meaning 'lineage; descent; stock' — hence a sense of good breeding or noble line. The connection is plausible but not fully documented, and we flag that rather than state it flatly.Low
History & Origin
Nasli is at home among Parsi and Persian-speaking families. It is usually connected to nasl — an Arabic word carried into Persian and Urdu meaning 'lineage; descent' — giving a sense of good stock or noble line. The etymology is plausible but not firmly documented, and rather than dress it up we note the uncertainty. In the U.S. it is rare and reads as compact and distinctive (said 'NAHS-lee').
It appears only rarely for girls in the U.S. Rare, compact, and Persian-rooted.
