Babar
[bɑːˈbɑːr]Meaning
a male given name of Persian origin, from babr, "tiger"
Background Story
Babar is a male given name of Persian origin, generally taken in reference to the Persian babr, meaning "tiger". It is also spelled Baber, Babur and Babor, and the word appears repeatedly in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh before being borrowed into the Turkic languages of Central Asia. Behind the Name records it as an alternate transcription of Urdu بابر, used in Turkish and Uzbek. Thackston argues for an alternate derivation from the PIE word "beaver", pointing to similarities between the pronunciation Bābor and the Russian bobr.
