What Does the Name Bahareh Mean?
Bahareh is a Persian feminine name meaning 'spring-like' or 'of spring.' It comes from the Persian noun bahār (بهار), the ordinary word for the spring season, plus the Persian ending -eh, which forms adjectives and feminine given names. The literal sense is 'vernal' or 'belonging to spring.' It is not an Arabic name, though it is written with Arabic-script letters in Persian.
Bahareh Name History & Origins
Bahareh belongs to the Persian naming tradition and is written بهاره in Persian script. The base word bahār descends from Middle Persian wahār, 'spring'; in the development to New Persian, the initial w became b, as in other Persian words. The ending -eh turns the season word into a descriptive personal name. Bahareh is used in Iran and among Persian-speaking communities. In classical Persian poetry, spring is a common image for renewal and blossoming, and that association surrounds the word bahār; the name's established sense, however, is 'spring-like' or 'of spring.'
