Bring harmony and tranquility into your homestead as you welcome baby Suleyman. This boy's name is a Turkish variant of the Arabic Solomon and comes from the Hebrew term shalom, meaning "peace." Süleyman the Magnificent, the longest-reigning Ottoman Sultan, was the era's paramount ruler, leaving a mark on history with his significant leadership. Süleyman, likened to Solomon, expanded Constantinople and demonstrated just military, artistic, and legal strategies during his reign. Your little one might not rule an empire, but they will be a pacifist by nature with this Arabic gem.
