Wikipedia

  1. Darwish

    Darwish and Darvish (and in French more prominently Darwich and Darwiche) are alternate transliterations of the Persian word "dervish", used in Arabic: درويش‎, referring to a Sufi aspirant. There is no v sound in most Modern Arabic dialects and so the originally Persian word is usually pronounced with a w sound in Arabic. The word appears as a surname in the Levant or for people descended from Levantine communities, particularly in Lebanon, Syria, Israel and the Palestinian territories. In Iraq, the surname, which in arab means « wandering, roaming » has been borne by people of jewish descent as well. An etymology for the name is given in the Oxford Dictionary of American Family Names:
