For Kurdish boys, naming traditions emphasize courage, independence, and ancestry. Monikers like Rojhat (“daybreak”) or Diyar (“region/place”) echo mountain vistas and communal bonds. Some parents adapt Persian or Arabic elements, while still preserving Kurdish linguistic essence. In a region often defined by resilience, these names offer a powerful foundation for a young man committed to his heritage and poised to shape his own destiny.
