The name of the union council Birote means "the land of wrestlers". The words khurd and kalan ("little" and "big") are administrative terminology dating back to Mughal times, to differentiate two areas with the same name, hence Birote Khurd means "little khurd". The words khurd ("small") and kalan ("big") are taken from Persian. (cf. Britannia major, "Greater Britain" and Britannia minor "Lesser Britain").
