L'histoire du prénom
Baran — in a land where water does not always come of itself, the word is not weather but blessing. The root is Proto-Iranian vāra-. As a name it is given to girls and boys alike — the rain falls on everyone.
Étymologie
Racine: baran · Kurmancî
Baran descends from Proto-Iranian vāra- (rain), with cognates in Persian bârân and Pashto bārān. In Kurdish it is given to both girls and boys; in dryland geography rain is mercy, and the name reads that way.
