Hello everyone,

i live in nashville, tennessee and am writing about a kurdish born writer. she names herself in her books "Sefti". I saw the name on the internet but couldn't figure out what it means. Can someone help me? i am stuck on this word. I know "Sevgi" means "love" in turkish. Is it the same in kurdish?

Thanks for your help!

Maria

Some how some thing telling me it means something like 'stamina' or sounds like jeft, oak, or jefti, oakly. On the other hand, the name could be the same as 'softi' because Kurdish is an Indo-European language just like English and German.
