Name meaning and origin
Badirkhan is a compound name formed from the joining of two words: Arabic “bədr” (full moon) and “xan” (title, ruler) of Turkic-Azerbaijani origin. Together the name means “moon-faced khan”, “a ruler as beautiful as a full moon”, and conveys both beauty and majesty.
In Azerbaijan and among neighboring Turkic peoples, Badirkhan is linked both to the family of names derived from the root "badr" (Badr, Badruddin) and to names formed with the title "khan" (Aslankhan, Elkhan). The name is also written in the form Badirkhan. The name Badirkhan does not appear directly in the Quran, but there is no prohibition on it from an Islamic standpoint.
