While the names Ferz and Wazir may well be unconnected in etymology, the job descriptions certainly have much in common. It is notable that the modern Queen is called Ferz in Russian and Vezer in Hungarian (a word of unusually obvious meaning for that language!). There is also a similar synergy between Ferz and Wazir as between Knight and Camel or (on a different scale) Rook and Bishop.
