| Aug 8, 2018 at 9:18 | comment | added | Otto Abnormalverbraucher | @AllInOne The links provided actually give very little hint, a handful of names, most of them religious or aristocratic figures. However, it sparked the idea of searching for Zoroastrian names, as this was the pre-Islamic belief spreading in Achaemenid Persia, dominating until the Islamic conquest. Then I stumbled upon a book called "Parsiana Book of Iranian Names" but sadly no extract, and finally on this list, which provides a lot of options. So, thanks. | |

| Aug 7, 2018 at 15:51 | comment | added | Otto Abnormalverbraucher | I can find some names of kings and princes and if I didn't just fly over it maybe some nobility but not just regular prenames, or am I wrong? | |
| Aug 7, 2018 at 15:35 | comment | added | Lars Bosteen | Doesn't the Wikipedia article Sasanian Empire and the links therein provide a sufficient source for names? | |
