Meaning and origin of Lahooti
Lahooti grows out of lahut, a word theologians and Sufi authors writing in Arabic and Persian used for the divine realm, as opposed to nasut, the world of human beings. Adding the -i ending makes it an adjective, roughly 'of the heavens' or 'divine'. Most people meet it as a family name or a pen-name, and the Iranian poet Abolqasem Lahouti wrote under it. Parents only rarely pick it as a first name.
