A name that means "pomegranate flower".

Golnar is from the Persian گلنار (Gol-nār — gol flower + nār pomegranate / fire) — pomegranate flower, fire-flower. Golnar is one of the Persian feminine names — central to traditional Persian poetic + Zoroastrian + Islamic heritage. The pomegranate (anar) is central to Persian + Iranian floral symbolism Shab-e Yalda (winter solstice festival 5,000+ years old) where pomegranates symbolize the sun's rebirth.

Pomegranate flower / fire-flower (Persian).
