What does Bolhan mean?
A name evoking abundance and rulership
In Turkish: bolluk ve hükümdarlık çağrışımlı ad
Bolhan may be interpreted as joining abundance with a historical title of rulership. Turkish bol expresses plentiful quantity, while han appears in many historical and modern names. Translating the whole form as a wealthy ruler would assign a more precise meaning than the components securely support.
In compound names such as Metehan and Emirhan, han comes from the historical title khan, meaning a ruler. The same letters in Cihan have a different origin. More boy names ending in -han →
