Osman is a beautiful boy's name of Turkish origin. Meaning "wise" or "most powerful," it's no wonder this moniker was carried by so many monarchs of the past, like Osman I, II, and III of the Ottoman Empire, and Osman I of Fehendhoo, who reigned as Sultan of the Maldives in the late 14th century. Osman may also be inspired by the Arabic name Uthman, meaning "baby bustard," borne by a close companion of the Prophet Muhammad. So many names have rocked the world, but this one certainly calls the shots!
