The name Fasa is derived from the older form Pasā. Various etymologies for this name have been proposed. Local tradition holds that Fasa is named after a legendary prince named Pasa, son of Fars and grandson of Tahmuras. In Ibn al-Balkhis retelling the legend, Fars granted the town of Fasa to Pasa; in Hamdallah Mustawfi version, Pasa founds the city himself (in this version, he is directly the son of Tahmuras). Researchers have also considered the meaning of the word Fasa "the city of the Persians".Much earlier, the 13th century writer Yaqut al-Hamawi also suggested that the name meant "the north wind".
