About the name Farhad
Farhad belongs to the Persian tradition. Its roots are documented, even though its precise meaning is not recorded in the standard references — an honest gap we prefer to a confident guess.
In the United States, Farhad first appears in Social Security records in 1972. It climbed to its best-ever rank of #3280 in 1981, and in 2024 6 babies received the name — 268 in total since 1880. Those are the official counts, not estimates.
