About the name
Nasrin is the Persian name for the wild or dog rose, the single-petalled hedgerow flower rather than the cultivated bloom. Persian naming distinguishes these carefully: gul is the garden rose, nasrin the one that grows without being planted.
It is widely used across Iran, Afghanistan and the Kurdish regions, and among Bengali Muslims as Nasreen. The Nobel laureate Narges Mohammadi's contemporaries include several prominent Nasrins, which keeps it in the news. It has no US ranking.
