Answer:
Unlike Alexander, Tamerlane was not of royal blood, but came from humble stock. ... At birth he was given the name Timur, meaning iron, which later gave rise to the pejorative Persian version, Timur-i-lang (Timur the lame), after a devastating injury he suffered to both right limbs in his youth.

Answer:
More striking and startling by far was the fact that Tamerlane was severely disabled in his right side. At birth he was given the name Timur, meaning iron, which later gave rise to the pejorative Persian version, Timur-i-lang (Timur the lame), after a devastating injury he suffered to both right limbs in his youth.
