have u ever heard about the finnish melodic dark metal band from frozen lands?
I just watched their "Tuonelan Lasten Tanssi" today & shocked,not because of their video because of their NAME!
anyone...knows what is their origin?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
ah ok no answers!but...finally found an interview from them,at least I got WHY THEY CHOSED THE NAME "MIRZADEH"!

"They call themselves Finland’s “Black Metal Royalty.” They are MIRZADEH, currently riding the release of their excellent sophomore album, “The Creatures Of Loviatar.” A young band full of talent and great sense for creating Symphonic Black Metal, MIRZADEH have a bright future ahead of them. Lues, bassplayer and lyricist, is the member interviewed here:

And finally, where does the name MIRZADEH come from?

Mirox found it before he had established the band. As far as I know, Mirzadeh is a Persian word and it means "prince from Persia". The Vikings had connected with ancient Persia. For example, Finns sold fly-agaric [a type of drug-esque substance] drinks to them. You could say that MIRZADEH’s world is maybe al little like that…how the old Persians had seen the world with fly-agaric drinks affecting their head, haha"
