Meaning and origin of Hiranur

Hiranur is a modern Turkish name that joins Hira, the cave where revelation of the Quran began, with nur, the Arabic word for light. Turkish families often build girls' names this way, adding nur to another word, as in Elifnur or Zeynepnur. The result calls to mind the light of revelation first shining in that cave. Both of its parts are Arabic, even though the compound is Turkish.
