What is the Origin of the Surname Kılıçdaroğlu?

[edit]

I know that "oğlu" means "son", but don't know the origin of "Kılıçdar". A prominent person named "Kılıçdaroğlu" is Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu. KKY883 (talk) 06:37, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wiktionary has and entry on it at wikt:Kılıçdaroğlu, deriving it from "kılıç (“sword”) +‎ -dar (“bearer”) +‎ -oğlu (“son”)." Fut.Perf. 08:49, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
