What does Süer mean?
Army soldier; warrior
In Turkish: ordu eri, asker
Süer combines the old word for army with er, a word for a man or soldier. Er survives in modern Turkish military vocabulary, while sü is chiefly historical or preserved in names. Süalp is a closely related compound using the same first element.
In Alper and Caner, er is a Turkish component meaning “man” or “brave man.” In other names, such as Ömer, the final letters do not form that component. More boy names ending in -er →
