Questions
About these girl names
How many girl names are on TurkicNames?
7,175 published names are listed on this page. 2,841 have a meaning backed by a cited source (Documented), 88 are Likely, and 4,246 come from our own editorial research. Use the meaning label filter to see only one group.
Which languages contribute the most girl names?
Turkish (3,758), Uyghur (2,539), and Kazakh (562) lead the list. A name counts for a language only when our data records it for that language, so a name used in several languages is counted once for each.
Can a girl's name here also be used for the other gender?
Yes, sometimes. Names marked Unisex are included in this list because they are recorded for both genders in at least one language. 6,649 names on this page are recorded for one language only, and 526 for two or more; the language table on each name page shows the gender per language.
What do girl names here most often mean?
By documented meaning theme, the biggest groups are flowers (698), beauty (496), and moon (485). Themes come from the meaning of each name as recorded on its page, never from how a name looks or sounds.
Which origins appear most often?
Our origin rows show Arabic (2,713), Turkic (2,449), and Persian (1,781) most often. Origin describes where the name's parts come from, not which people use it, so an Arabic name can be thoroughly Turkic in everyday use.
