Sohrāb or Suhrāb (Persian: سهراب) is a legendary warrior from the Shahnameh, or the Tales of Kings by Ferdowsi in the tragedy of Rostam and Sohrab.

[1] He was the son of Rostam, who was an Iranian warrior, and Tahmineh, the daughter of the king of Kingdom of Samangan, a neighboring country.

Kaykavous, the king of Iran, delayed giving Rostam the panacea (Noush Daru) to save Sohrab as he feared losing his power to the alliance of the father and the son.

His name means “hot red water”, and is analogous with the modern Persian term, "Sorkh-ab".

Sohrab remains a popular name in Persian-influenced cultures from Turkey to India.
