Girl
Aysun
Aysun is a familiar Turkish girls’ name, traditionally understood as beautiful like the moon.
Meaning
Aysun is generally described as meaning as beautiful as the moon. Its familiar interpretation draws a simple comparison between beauty and the moon’s appearance.
Origin
The name is Turkish in origin. Sources describe it as combining ay, meaning moon, with sun, linked to the Turkish verb sunmak, to offer or present.
In recent years
Long among the most chosen names, Aysun remains a recognised classic of earlier generations. It appeared in earlier top-hundred lists seventeen times, reaching fifty-fourth at its highest, but is absent from the latest official top hundred.
