[یاسمینه]

Yama (Yima), the first lord of Airyanem Vaejah was the son of Vivanhant - the first mortal human who prepared Haoma/Soma. Later Yama was called Khshaeta - shining/ brillant.
Yama - this name comes from Avestan and Jamshid is its Persian equivalent.

You are such an arrogant and judgmental individual. And to think I once respected you...I am disappointed in myself.

yeah Shayasta is a female name but also a male name in its form khayasta . I have met men having khaysta as his name. I think Shayasta is female while its geosynonym khayasta is for male..interesting discovery . And yes I have met a female by the name Khayast(beauty).

[Pisho]

Osho babes the KH and SH sounds depend on where ur from like people in the south speak using sh sounds like SHA YM, SHAYSTA YM, and others like most that live in peshawar, ningrhar, and north east i believe they speak using KH shouds in the beginning like KHA YM, KHAISTA YM, u see its the same words just different dialect of it.. So thats why.. Its not that khaista can be a mans name and shaysta females its just different dialects.. But its very interesting i never heard a mans name like that just many versions of female name.. Maybe he was too handsome and his mom just had to name him khaista

We have a man in our village named khaista gul. But you are correct it is a females name and his parents does not know that. I tried to tell them that but they did not like it and told me that I was wrong. I showed them journalists and other prominent women with the name khaista/shaista and they told me that those womens parents have it wrong. That was years back but now there are a few girls with this name in our village. My work paid off.

[khushal]

We have varieties of this name:
