Feruz
Fewer than 40 men in Poland carry this name, so most Poles will never meet a Feruz. It comes from a word for "victorious" and also for turquoise, the blue-green stone.
Feruz Pronunciation

What Feruz means
Where Feruz comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Feruz comes to Polish name lists from far east of the Vistula. Its root is Persian, where firuz means victorious and firuza names the blue-green stone Poles call turkus. Arabic-speaking families took the name up, and that link is the one a Polish reader tends to meet first.
Two meanings share one word. Victory and turquoise met in Persian long ago, when the stone was prized across Iran and Central Asia and set into rings and blades. History records real bearers. Piruz Nahavandi, a Persian taken captive in the seventh century, appears under a close variant of the same name.
In a Kraków class register the name would stand out, five plain letters. It has no Polish diminutive and no name-day of its own. What it keeps is the double sense: firuz the victorious, firuza the turquoise.
