Soroosh is a name of Persian origin and it means "light". It comes from the Middle Persian word "sruš" which also means "light". The name Soroosh is often associated with Zoroastrianism, an ancient Iranian religion that reveres light as a symbol of goodness and truth.
The name Soroosh was popular among the Parthians and Sassanians, two ancient Iranian dynasties. It was also used by the Zoroastrians who migrated to India after the Arab conquest of Persia in the 7th century AD.
Today, Soroosh is still a popular name among Iranians and people of Persian descent around the world. It is often spelled differently depending on the region and language, such as Sorush or Surush. Despite its variations in spelling, the meaning and origin of the name remain the same: light.
