Derived from the Arabic root _n-ṣ-r_ meaning "victory," Mansoor is a masculine name that directly translates to "victorious" or "one who is helped to triumph." It appears in the Quran in the context of divine support, and is found across the Muslim world in various spellings, including Mansur, Mansour, and Mansor. A prominent bearer was Abu Jafar al-Mansur, the second Abbasid caliph who founded Baghdad in the 8th century. More recently, Mansoor (also known as Big Cass) is an American professional wrestler of Pakistani descent. The name also appears in Turkish and Persian contexts, sometimes as a surname. In Scotland, Mansoor has been given to a small but steady number of boys since the 1970s, reflecting the country's multicultural community.
