• Source: Elif (name)

Elif (Turkish pronunciation: [elif]) is a name that is most commonly given to females in Turkey, but is also popular in other countries such as the Netherlands. In Greece it is associated with the name Nefeli. It originates from the Arabic word for the first letter of the Ottoman Turkish alphabet. Like the shape of the letter, it is thus taken to mean 'slender or upright'.
