Meaning & usage

name
  1. a male given name from West Circassian, popular among Circassians and Nogais in Turkey

Where this word comes from

A modern neo-Circassian name reflecting Turkish influence. The first element is the Circassian root джан (džan, “sharp, great”) and the second is the Turkish word berk (“strong, solid”). It is possibly an attempt to Circassianize the Turkic name Canberk (historically associated with Janibek Khan, who established the Kazakh Khanate during the disintegration of the Golden Horde), or it may be an allusion to the traditional Circassian name Джанбэч (Džanbɛč) (Janbech). It is particularly common among people of Circassian and Nogai descent in Turkey.
