Fayruz is an Arabic name, Fairooz must be an alternate transcription of it. That tells you something right there.

Actually, looks to me like an Iranian spelling.

Could be. Fayruz comes from Firuza, the female form of the Iranian name Firuz.

There is a Lebanese guitarist of note who plays “Arabic music” named Fairooz.
