Zariyan is a Kurdish name that means "storm". It is used for both boys and girls. It is pronounced [(Z)ero + r(U)n + p(R)ay] + [(YA)r(N)], written as زريان, and can also be written as Zaryan, Zryan, Zryaan, Zaryaan, Zeryan, Zeryaan, Zeriyan, Zeriyaan in English.
Zariyan is not an Islamic name but Muslims can use it because it doesn't have a bad meaning.

Why does your site provide two different meanings for zariyan? the above and the following:
Zariyan is an Arabic name for boys that means “dispersed in the air”, dust or leaves that the wind lifts and disperses. It also means “one who walks fast”.
