What does Leylifer mean?

Water lily flower

In Turkish: nilüfer çiçeği

When understood as a form of Nilüfer, Leylifer carries the image of a flower opening on the water. It can be considered alongside Nilüfer and Leylüfer. Its opening syllables do not securely establish a connection with the Arabic word for night, so night-based compound meanings should be avoided.

Origin of the name Leylifer

Probably an altered form of Nilüfer. That word comes through Persian nīlūfar from Sanskrit nīlotpala, a term for a blue water flower.
