Mirza is also a title used by Mongols
Note: Mirza is also the genus name of the giant mouse lemur. 71.217.98.158 00:47, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
What the article said seemed wrong to me (from what I remember), so....
My mother is Iranian. Born and raised there. And only moved to Canada (at my Dad's request) after marrying my Dad (who is a Canadian). (So she's an expert on this.)
I asked her and (I'll update the article to reflect that.) -- Charles Iliya Krempeaux 22:50, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
In Kazakh as in other turkic languages from former USSR 'mirza' means 'mister'-- AlefZet 14:01, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
In the article it says...
That's not accurate. The title is still used in Iran. -- Charles Iliya Krempeaux 07:35, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
Mirza is used by some Circassian royal families; Mirza signifies pure royal linage when both parents are of the same rank. When appended to the surname, to signify Prince..-- Adyga ( talk) 12:30, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
Mirza was used by polish nobility (szlachta) families, they have ( Tatar) origin, but 'sum' is Latin word. It means 'I'm': Polonus nobilis sum - I'm polish nobleman. Polish Murzyn is from Maur (Latin: Maurus, en.: Moors), not from mirza. Sorry for my English. -- Kynikos Vodyanoi ( talk) 05:02, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
Anyone know what the feminine of "Mirza" is? As in, "princess"? Is it the same term or a feminine form? I've heard conflicting views on the internet about this, as apparently there are some women with the first name Mirza. -- Snowgrouse ( talk) 22:37, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
why can't I use Kyrgyz spelling in introduction section? it is still in use in Kyrgyzstan, not only there but in all Central Asian countries, meaning "Mister" and female form is "Myrzayim", i.e. Mrs.
Based on the content of the article, I expanded the lead a bit, and listed the names of the states/dynasties that adopted and used the term "Mirza". I should also note that I believe the article is in need of more citations and reliable secondary sources. -- Kurdo777 ( talk) 12:15, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
the second para had some uncited text that I removed. It basically just rephrased the history of Mughal india in 8-9 lines that the article could do without. ( Rajshahi jela ( talk) 10:17, 25 January 2011 (UTC))
me adding location name of mirza, so read, editing more than batter.-- BeyPeople ( talk) 12:47, 29-12-12 (UTC)--
The list of Highnesses needs a bit of context, i.e. an introductory sentence saying why they are listed. — Tamfang ( talk) 21:28, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: no consensus after two relistings. ( closed by non-admin page mover) GeoffreyT2000 ( talk) 05:11, 8 December 2022 (UTC)
– There was an undiscussed cut-and-paste move from this page to the base title, which will need to be history-merged; the disambiguation page was moved to Mirza (disambiguation) via an improper title. Is there a clear primary topic for Mirza? – LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄) 09:08, 13 November 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. Clyde! Franklin! 21:42, 20 November 2022 (UTC) — Relisting.
