Boy
İsa
İsa is a short, established boys’ name with a long religious and cultural history.
Meaning
İsa is the Turkish name for Jesus, an important figure in both Islam and Christianity. Name references commonly explain it through this association rather than a separate everyday meaning.
Origin
The name is generally linked to the Hebrew Yeshua, with the Turkish form İsa coming through Arabic.
In recent years
İsa was long among the most chosen boys’ names, reaching a best position of 51 in earlier rankings. It is absent from the latest official top hundred but remains a familiar classic from older generations.
How does it look on a plaque?
İsa sits neatly above a birth date on a wooden Meşgalem name plaque, with its three letters clearly displayed.
