What does Mestinaz mean?
Enraptured by coy charm
In Turkish: nazla kendinden geçmiş
Mestinaz can be understood through Persian poetic images of rapture and coy charm. Here mest suggests being deeply captivated rather than necessarily literal intoxication. It is semantically related to Nazlı and other names containing naz, although the precise historical form of the construction should be checked.
Naz comes from Persian and conveys ideas of coy charm or grace. It appears in Elifnaz, Gülnaz and Şehnaz as a name element, not a description of the bearer’s personality. More girl names ending in -naz →
