In Turkish: buyruk sahibi; yüce, yüksek
Emirali joins two independent masculine names and is best understood through those separate elements. Ali gives it a clear historical and Islamic association with Ali ibn Abi Talib; places sharing this spelling do not provide the etymological meaning of the personal name.
Ali is an Arabic-origin name meaning “exalted” or “high,” used in compounds such as Yusufali and Binali. The final letters in names such as Kemali do not necessarily represent Ali. More boy names ending in -ali →
