About Avesta
Avesta is listed in the CC0 Muslim Names Dataset as a male name. The source records its meaning as “It's a Persian name for boys and girls that means principle, foundation, refuge, fellowship. It is also the name of an ancient language of Persia and the name of the holy book of Zoroastrianism, an ancient religion of Persia which some Muslim scholars consider a true religion inspired by God that, like Christianity”. Its origin label is stated directly in the source text. Its reader-friendly phonetic spelling is generated deterministically from the published transliteration and should be reviewed for names with complex or region-specific pronunciation.
Meaning and Arabic spelling are sourced from the Muslim Names Dataset or, where provided, the record-specific provenance URL. Origin labels are source-stated where available or transparently inferred from the published script or etymological signal. Phonetic respellings are generated reading guides, not native-speaker recordings. See Sources & methodology for data limitations.
