  • Prahran (pronounced "pruh-RAN"), also known colloquially as "Pran", is a suburb in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, 5 km south-east from Melbourne's central business district. Its Local Government Area is the City of Stonnington. At the 2006 Census, Prahran had a population of 10,651. It is in the Local Government Area of the City of Stonnington. It is a part of Melbourne with many shops, restaurants and cafes. The area of Prahran centred along Commercial Road is one of Melbourne's gay villages. The shopping street Chapel Street is a mix of upscale fashion shops and cafes. Along with the South Yarra section of Toorak Rd, it is a fashionable magnet for Melbourne's yuppie set. Greville Street, once the centre of the Melbourne's hippie community, has many cafes, bars, restaurants, bookstores, clothing shops and music shops. Prahran takes its name from Pur-ra-ran, a compound of two aboriginal words, meaning "land partially surrounded by water" in 1837 by George Langhorne.
  • Prahran ist ein Stadtteil von Melbourne im Bundesstaat Victoria in Australien und nur 5 km von der Innenstadt entfernt. Der Ortsname ist vom Aborigine-Begriff „purraran“ abgeleitet und bedeutet - wegen der Nähe zum Yarra River und Albert Park Lake - „überwiegend von Wasser umgeben“. Zunächst war Prahran ein Siedlungsgebiet für Farmer, mit bzw. nach dem Goldrausch in den 1850er Jahren wurde es dann zu einer Arbeitersiedlung.
