From the tenth century Persian became the literary and courtly language of the eastern Islamic world, carried by the Samanid, Ghaznavid, Seljuk, Timurid and Mughal courts and used in administration as far as Bengal. Its vocabulary of light, garden and heart supplied given names across that whole reach, alongside the Arabic religious stock, and still does.
