Meaning of the baby name MASOOD.

  

MASOOD (مسعود).  The same as Arabic Masud (q.v.), meaning "chance."

Amongst the numerous officers and servants in the fortress, Zorawer had become intimate with one only, a young man named Masood, who was the general's own page.  As he was one day walking on the battlements with this youth he observed a female figure, whose form was symmetry itself, cross the courtyard of the castle.  In one hand she bore a guitar, and upon the other was perched a milk-white dove.
    "Who can that angel be, Masood?" enquired the anxious Zorawer.
    "That lady," replied the page, "is our noble master's daughter."
    "And her name?" asked Zorawer.
    "Is Amina."
    "She is exquisitely beautiful, Masood."
    (Tales of the Zenana, Hockley, 1874)
