Name meaning and origin

Artun is an ancient Turkic-origin boy name. Its root lies in the phrase “artan, çoxalan” (growing, multiplying) found in ancient Turkic written monuments; this word denotes both the growth of a plant and the increase of fame and worth. Some Turkological sources divide the name into “art” (to increase, to grow) and “un” (fame, renown); thus Artun means “whose fame grows, whose name is exalted”.

Artun is one of the deep-rooted names widely spread among Turkic-speaking peoples. Because the name symbolizes bravery, strength, and growth, it is given to boy children with positive wishes. In Azerbaijan, this name is used in both its classical and modern forms.
