In Turkish: mutlu ve uğurlu; bahtı açık
Mutlutekin is a compound that can be interpreted around happiness and good fortune. Tekin has both modern Turkish associations and a place in naming traditions connected with an ancient title. Translating the whole name simply as happy prince would conceal this ambiguity between its possible readings.
