Marjane
Any idea what this means? I think it's Iranian.
Also, any ideas about Taji or Shusha?We're all in the gutter, but some of us look at the stars.

A Dictionary of Muslim names by Salahuddin Ahmed lists Marjaan as an Arabic name meaning "small pearls, corals."The Complete Book of Muslim & Parsi Names by Maneka Gandhi and Ozair Husain lists Marjân as an Arabic name meaning "small pearl, coral" and Marjâni as an Arabic name meaning "coraline; coral red". I think it's likely that Marjane is a Farsi (Persian) version of Marjân or Marjâni. The Gandhi & Husain book lists Shûshah as an Arabic name meaning "speck, particle, part." Both books list Taj or Tâj as an Arabic male name meaning "crown".
