Girl
Elif Nur
Elif Nur pairs the name of the Arabic alphabet’s first letter with a word meaning light.
Meaning
Elif is the Turkish form of the name of the first letter in the Arabic alphabet. Nur means light or illumination, so the two-part name brings these meanings together rather than forming a fixed phrase.
Origin
Both parts have Arabic roots. Their pairing as Elif Nur is used as a girl's name in Turkish naming tradition.
In recent years
Elif Nur was among the most chosen names for a time, appearing in earlier top-100 lists on 13 occasions and reaching a highest rank of 47. It does not appear in the latest official top-100 list.
How does it look on a plaque?
Elif Nur would look lovely written across a wooden Meşgalem name plaque, with the baby's birth date beneath it.
