Etymology

Borrowed from Classical Persian سهروردی (suhrawardī), from سهرورد (suhraward, Sohrevard) + ـی (, relational suffix), with the first element from Middle Persian [Book Pahlavi needed] (*swhrʾp-krt' /⁠*suhrāβ-gard⁠/), from [Book Pahlavi needed] (swhr /⁠suhr⁠/, red) + [Book Pahlavi needed] (ʾp /⁠āβ⁠/, water) + [Book Pahlavi needed] (krt' /⁠-gard⁠/, civic suffix), ultimately from Proto-Iranian *cuxráh (bright), *Hā́fš (water) and *kr̥táh (done, made), respectively.
