Sword; exalted or lofty
In Turkish: kılıç; yüce, yüksek
Seyfali combines the sword element seyf with the name Ali. Ali's place in Islamic history can add a historical association, but the joined spelling does not by itself mean 'Ali's sword'; the two elements should be interpreted individually.
Ali is an Arabic-origin name meaning “exalted” or “high,” used in compounds such as Yusufali and Binali. The final letters in names such as Kemali do not necessarily represent Ali. More boy names ending in -ali →
