Zeeshan, Zishan, Zeshaan or Zeshan (Persian: ذیشان, Persian: ذیشان; Arabic: ذِي شَان|ḏī-šān|possessor of splendor) is an Arabic given name, simply translated as "princely". This word is also used in Persian, Urdu and sometimes in Turkish poetry as an adjective.
In South Asia, this name is mostly used for males; however, the name is neutral in gender and can also be used for females (mostly in Turkey) with meanings "moon", "magnificent" and "brilliant".
The diminutive or nickname for Zeeshan is "Shaan" or "Shani".
"Jishaan" is a Bihari and Indian cognate for the same word, so written due to the lack of a native /z/ sound in Sanskrit-derived languages.
