Arash is a very beautiful

Arash is a very beautiful name, very masculine and sexy, especially compared to the rest of male Iranian names such as Ali, Taghi, Naghi, etc.

The name

by iranian4ever (not verified) on Sat Mar 14, 2009 10:26 AM PDT

In Europe, do they pronounce it "Ar-ash" or "A-rash" or something else? Yes, its a serious q.. in the West I've only ever heard my workmates/schoolmates/friends with that name being called "a-rash". I always felt sorry for them! But it was kinda funny too.. :)

Anyway, good on him! The biggest RASH of them all =)

Congrats BUT Eurovision is becoming N'Importe Quoi ! ...

Eurovision has become a pool for ANYTHING but "European" Music. Contestants particularly from Northern Europe sing in English rather than their native tongue and even France became a victim of this absurdity last year with a singer with Sebastien Tellier.

That was the Worst Defeat For France Since Waterloo ( Not the ABBA Eurovision Winner song But the Battle in 1815) ...

As for Azerbaijan as Part Of Europe ...

Who are We Kidding ? We can hardly include Turkey who has been on the list for so many decades ...

This contest has become more of a ridiculous competition for Mediocrity ( no offense intended to Arash or this years competitors) than anything "authentic".

Good luck to Azerbaijan anyways and Arash ...

He is much better in Persian. His good humour doesn't come across here.
