(vashtı̂y) (vaištī / vahišta)
Meaning:*
Queen Vashti is the first wife of King Ahasuerus in the Book of Esther, a book included in the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) and read on Purim’s Jewish holiday. She is banished for her refusal to appear at the king’s banquet, and Esther is chosen to succeed her as queen. The meaning of the name Vashti is uncertain. As a modern Persian name, it is understood to mean “beauty” or “goodness.” It may have originated from the reconstructed Old Persian *vaištī, related to the superlative adjective vahišta- “best, excellent” found in the Avesta, with the feminine termination -ī; hence “excellent woman, best of women.”
