One who recites; one who follows
In Turkish: Okuyan; ardından gelen
Taliye brings together reading and following a sequence through meanings of the same Arabic root. Its connection with recitation can evoke measured reading aloud, while 'one who follows' remains another lexical sense; resemblance in sound alone does not make it equivalent to the Turkish name Talih.
The ending “-ye” has no single independent meaning across these names. In Rukiye, Safiye and Aliye, the ending is understood through each name’s linguistic origin and structure. More girl names ending in -ye →
