In Urdu, "Pakistan" (پاکستان) is derived from two words: "Pak," meaning pure, and "Stan," meaning land or place. Thus, Pakistan translates to "the land of the pure." The name reflects the country's founding ideology, emphasizing a homeland for Muslims in the Indian subcontinent.

What is the meaning of the name 'Jayedad'?

As far as I am concerned, 'Jayedad' is a Farsi word. Once I saw this name in a book of kids' names and as far as I can remember it has the meaning like 'asset' or 'wealth'. At the same time I would like to refer to Urdu language. I hope someone educated in Urdu language can help to find out the meaning of 'Jayedad' because this name may have some obvious connection to Urdu language or Pakistan territory. In Pakistan you can find the names like 'Miandad', 'Khodadad' etc. Javed Miandad was one of the famous cricketers from Pakistan.
