What does Seba mean?

Morning breeze, gentle easterly wind

In Turkish: Sabah yeli, hafif doğu rüzgârı

Seba evokes morning coolness and a lightly moving breeze. In classical Turkish poetry, the saba wind often carries fragrance or news from the beloved; that literary setting gives the name a delicate natural image beyond the straightforward description of a wind direction.

Origin of the name Seba

The name is connected, alongside Saba, with Arabic ṣabā, an easterly breeze. Seba is treated in this interpretation as a pronunciation variant; the similarly written geographical and historical name Sheba belongs to a separate word.
