Scheherazade

Scheherazade is a feminine name of Persian origin. If your little one is already set on spreading their wings, this soft and sophisticated title could be a spectacular choice! Scheherazade has two possible meanings, so baby may enjoy discovering where their name’s roots lie. Firstly, the moniker may translate to “child of the city” or “born of the city,” from the Persian elements shahr, meaning “city,” and zād, meaning “child of” or “born of.” Scheherazade could also be a combination of the elements chehr, meaning “lineage,” and āzād, meaning “noble,” leading to the interpretation of “noble lineage.” Whether baby’s community is based in one location or they have friends and relatives all over the world, their name will remind them that they’ll always have a soft place to land. Scheherazade was also the title given to the courageous storyteller in One Thousand and One Nights, a Middle Eastern collection of tales. Filled with fighting spirit, Scheherazade can inspire in baby a longing for the liberation of all.
