“pure coyness; unalloyed grace”
Safinaz means pure coyness or unalloyed grace. Used as a feminine name in Türkiye, it brings together Arabic safi, meaning pure or clear, and Persian naz, meaning coyness or delicate charm. Its shared element naz connects it with names such as Nazlı and Nazan, providing a concrete linguistic association.
What does Safinaz mean?
Pure coyness; unalloyed grace
In Turkish: saf naz, katıksız incelik
Safinaz belongs to the group of feminine names containing naz. In older literary usage, naz suggests charm and coyness; in everyday Turkish it can also describe a show of reluctance that invites attention. The name draws on this range of meanings and shares its final element with Gülnaz and Şahnaz.
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 →
