Sanaz

Predominantly used in Iran, Sanaz is a name that celebrates individuality, sweetness, and charm. Notably borne by artist and photographer Sanaz Mazinani, content creator Sanaz Syed Sadri, and tennis player Sanaz Marand, there are several ways to interpret the name.

On one hand, it could derive from the elements sa and naz, which together could mean "like sweetness", "resembling delicateness" or "full of grace". Alternatively, it could be a blend of the Turkish san and az meaning "likeness" and "few", which might then be interpreted as "unique, rare, individual".

Pronounced sah-NAHZ.
