Narses

Narses is a masculine name of French and Persian origin with meanings cloaked in a bit of mystery. It can serve as a variant spelling of the French Narcisse, and, in turn, the Latin Narcissus. While this may remind you of the Greek myth of Echo and Narcissus, this name can also connect baby to the genus of bulbous flowers, particularly daffodils. These spring flowers are known for their unique trumpet shape and bright petals, giving this moniker plenty of uplifting vibes. Narses also has Middle Persian roots, where it may come from the words nar, meaning “masculine,” or naryasaha, meaning “divine messenger” or “heroic announcement.” Encourage baby to raise their voice and speak their mind with the noble Narses.
