**Farshid** (or **Farsheed**) is a Persian proper name. It consists from two morphemes, *far* (splendour, shine) + *shîd* (sun, sun beams). In this manner we could translate the Old Persian proper name Farshid/Farsheed as "sunshine" or "the splendor or the pomp of the sun".[1] This name is commonly used in Iran.
