The pronunciation is incorrect, it’s not FUn(R) but rather FAn(R).

Farshad is not related to Islam and thus is not an Islamic name. It is of old-Persian origin and is not linked to a specific religion.

Farshad is not linked to Islam. It’s a Persian name, nothing else. Fix this.

Why have you linked Farshad to Islam??? It’s Iranian (Persian)! Nothing to do with Muslim, Arabic or the Quran!

Islamic??? It’s Persian (Iranian). NOT ISLAMIC. NOT MUSLIM. NOT ARABIC. Please remove this name from your site since it isn’t related to your religion.

My dad put this specific name on me since he hates Islam and wanted to portray that in his son’s name. I am proud that my name is entirely Persian and has absolutely no relation to Islam. I remember how those muslim teachers in state controled school system of Iran used to make fun of our Persian names because that’s what was dictated to them by the government, to insult Persians and their Persian names. And now I have to deal with all these Indian and Pakistani websites putting my name among muslim names. You can’t add to the population of muslims by doing this. 10 percent of the population in Iran are muslim and that’s it. You have to accept this fact.
