Persian Persian name structures are quite different from European name structures. All patterns found in Ursula Georges, "Persian Masculine Names in theNafah.â al-uns//" (@http://www.s-gabriel.org/names/ursula/nafahat/) are registerable. The most common structure is a single given name followed by a locative byname derived from the adjectival form of a placename (usually adding - îo the placename for both men and women). Descriptive bynames are also found. A few examples of women's bynames (all locative) can be found in Aryanhwy merch Catmael and Ursula Georges, "Persian Feminine Names from the Safavid Period" (@http:''www.s-gabriel.org/names/ursula/persian.html).
