Ramin
The name carries the sense of peace and joy. Only about 400 men in Poland go by it, all of them male, so most Poles have never met a Ramin, and it's handed on less and less now.
Ramin Pronunciation
Ramin is pronounced RAH-meen (/ˈramin/).
What Ramin means
Where Ramin comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Ramin comes to Poland from well outside the usual pool of names, marked in the records simply as other in origin. It belongs to Persian tradition, and its best-known bearer lives inside a book. Around the eleventh century Fakhruddin Gurgani wrote the verse romance Vis and Ramin, and Ramin is its hero, a young man tangled in a long and painful love. That tale is older than most saints on the Polish calendar.
The meaning attached to the name, peace and joy, or pokój and radość in Polish, settled on it later. It reads as a wish laid over the sound rather than a root buried underneath. Short and open, the name asks for no shortening. There is no standard Polish diminutive, so a boy named Ramin in a class register stays Ramin from the first roll call.
Peace and joy: pokój, radość.
