the meaning of Parisa
Well, just looking through the list, I came across my name and the meaning is "NOT" really correct and the reason that I know this, is because years ago when I was in Iran, I went through some old Persian books to find the actual meaning of my name.
In Farsi "Parisa" is short for "Pari Afsa". "Pari" means fairy but "Afsa" comes from the word magic. So the whole name means "someone who captures fairies with her enchanting/magical powers!"Hope that helps,
Parisa
