It is claimed that her origin is disputed and it is stressed that In particular, her Ottoman name Nilüfer meaning water lily in Persian language suggests that she may have been a Persian concubine. Well Persian name does not mean that she was of Persian origin. Because in Ottoman harem it was a tradition to use Persian names for the converts and the slave girls. So the name Nilüfer suggests nothing about her origin. Nedim Ardoğa 14:13, 8 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
