About the name Nusyirwan
Nusyirwan is a romanized spelling of the Persian name Nushirvan (نوشیروان), a short form of Anushirvan (انوشیروان). It comes from Middle Persian anōšag ruwān, 'immortal soul', from anōšag 'immortal' and ruwān 'soul'. The first element was later confused with Persian nōšēn 'sweet', so the name was also understood as 'of the sweet soul'. Anushirvan was also the epithet of the Sasanian king Khosrow I.
