Alinur is a masculine compound name in Turkish and other Turkic naming traditions, formed from the Arabic elements Ali (ʿAlī, “exalted, noble”) and Nūr (“light, radiance”). The combined sense is “noble light” or “exalted light,” evoking Islamic reverence for Imam ʿAlī and the Qur’anic symbolism of nūr as divine guidance. Compound pairings of Ali with spiritual nouns were well established under the Ottomans and spread across Anatolia, the Caucasus, and Central Asia; the name remains current in Turkey, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and among diaspora Muslim communities.

Variants and spellings include Ali Nur (two-part form), Ali-Nur, Ali Noor, Alynur/Alynur, Kazakh Älinur (Әлинұр), and Azerbaijani Əlinur. Related names are Ali, Nur/Noor, Nuri, Nurali, and Nurullah. Diminutives may shorten to Ali or Nur. While chiefly masculine because of the Ali component, some cultures treat Nur-based compounds as unisex.
