Name meaning and origin

Bakir is a boy name of Arabic origin. In Arabic, this name derives from the root "bakir" and carries the meanings "pure, clean, untouched, pristine". The Arabic root forming the basis of the name is also connected with the concepts "to open, to split, to discover"; this shade of meaning also shows itself in related names such as Basir and Baqir.

The name Bakir is widespread in Azerbaijan, Bosnia and Turkic-speaking countries. In Bosnia it is regarded as a phonetically adapted form of the name Baqir from Arabic. The pure, spotless meaning the name carries gives it a spiritual value and makes it one of the names loved among Muslim families.

Alongside the name Bakir, the woman's name Bakirə was also formed from the same root, yet it is a completely independent name. Bakir is used separately as a boy name and, with its phonetic structure, fits the harmony of the Azerbaijani language.
