Name meaning and origin
Shukufa is of Persian origin, from the word 'shokufe' (شکوفه); its meaning is 'an opened flower, flower bud, blooming flower.' The word is linked to the Middle Persian root 'shkofag' (flower) and from there to the verb 'shkoften' (to open, to bloom).
Names with floral and nature imagery are given to girls in Persian- and Turkic-speaking cultures with the wish for delicacy, freshness, and beauty. They are among the poetic names rarely used in Azerbaijan. They do not appear in the Quran, and from an Islamic standpoint there is no prohibition.
