Meaning & origin
Parvin is a Persian name first recorded in US Social Security data in 1913, with its peak usage also occurring that same year. Despite its long history, the name has remained rare, with no recent rank or one-in-N data available. The stable trajectory suggests it has never surged in popularity but maintains a consistent, if minimal, presence. Parvin is not associated with any top states, reflecting its niche use. As a name with poetic roots, it carries cultural weight in Persian-speaking communities without broader mainstream adoption.
Parvin is a Persian name deriving from Parveen (or Parvin), meaning 'the Pleiades' or 'full moon' in Persian literature. It has been used in Iran and surrounding regions for centuries, often given to girls but also used for boys in some families. The name appears in classical Persian poetry, including works by Hafez.
