We are of Pakistani heritage, Persian names are very commonly used in our culture. I didn’t realise it was a unisex name!

I would find it very odd on someone without Middle Eastern heritage though.

I agree, and would probably just get shortened to Ann.

The man who was released from Iran with Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe is called Anoosheh

I didn't realise it was a unisex name, but it's nice. I would find it very odd on someone without Middle Eastern heritage though.

What is the sound at the end?
I've seen it written Anoosha before, but that might have different heritage and so not be the sound you are after.

I like it with an "ah" sound at the end. Less so with a "eh"
