What does Sare mean?

Princess; noblewoman

In Turkish: prenses; soylu kadın

Sare is associated with Sarah, the wife of Abraham and mother of Isaac. Sara and Sarah are forms of the same historical name in other languages. Although the Quran refers to Abraham's wife, it does not name her explicitly, so the association differs from direct textual occurrence.
