Name meaning and origin

Origin
Azerbaijani (Azerbaijan)
Meaning
an Azerbaijani masculine name meaning dignity, grandeur, magnificence, or noble bearing, from the Arabic waqar (وقار), meaning gravity, dignity, and composed authority; the name implies that the bearer carries himself with natural dignity and commands respect through the calm gravity of his presence rather than through aggressive assertion; waqar in Arabic and Islamic ethical thought is a quality of mature, wise, authoritative bearing — the dignity of a scholar, elder, or ruler who does not need to raise his voice because his presence itself commands attention; in Azerbaijani the name has become fully naturalised and is extremely common as one of the preferred masculine names expressing dignity and social standing; the v- initial — a phonological feature of Azerbaijani Turkic — distinguishes it from the Arabic original
