Meaning & History

Some sources claim that this masculine Persian name means "dynamic", while other sources claim that it means "to search" or "(re)searcher". But there are also a few sources that claim that the name means "to run" or "runner" - and those are probably the most likely to be correct, as this is the only meaning that I was able to find an Iranian word for that actually even remotely resembles the name. The word in question is Pahlavi pōy meaning "to run".
