Girl or boy
Öznur
Öznur brings together the ideas of inner essence and light, with a familiar place in Turkish naming traditions.
Meaning
Öznur is generally understood as light from within or one's own inner light. It combines öz, meaning inner essence or what is genuine, with nur, meaning light.
Origin
The name is a Turkish compound formed from the Turkish word öz and the Arabic-derived word nur. It is especially common as a name for girls.
In recent years
Öznur was long among the most chosen names, appearing in earlier top-hundred lists 21 times and reaching a best position of 74. It is absent from the latest official top hundred but remains a recognised classic from earlier generations.
How does it look on a plaque?
