Mehrmah

Girl name · 4 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Mehrmah: 4 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 4 births in 2024.

Mehrmah is a Persian name meaning "sun and moon," combining *mehr* (sun, love) and *mah* (moon), evoking a celestial balance of light and warmth. While not widely known in Scotland, it carries a poetic resonance that might appeal to parents seeking a name with ancient Zoroastrian roots. One notable bearer is Mehrmah Zarrabi, an Iranian actress and filmmaker known for her work in independent cinema. The name shares its first element with Mehr, the Zoroastrian deity of light and friendship, and the seventh month of the Iranian calendar. A further note: Mehrmah is sometimes spelled Mehr-Mah or Mehmah, and its lyrical quality has seen it grow in popularity among diaspora communities, though it remains rare in Scottish birth records.
