ezme is Turkish in Origin.
Ezme is a sleek modern respelling of Esme/Esmé, a name rooted in Old French esmé, the past participle of esmer “to esteem,” and long associated with aimé “beloved.” Through Scots and French ties, it entered Britain in the 16th century; a notable bearer was Esmé Stewart, 1st Duke of Lennox, marking the name’s early use as masculine in Scotland before its wider 19th–20th‑century revival as a feminine choice in English.
Contemporary usage favors the Z‑inflected Ezme for its crisp look alongside Ezra and Zola. Common variants include Esmé, Esme, Esmée (Dutch/French), and Ezmé; diminutives span Ez, Ezzie, Em, and Mae. The core meaning remains “esteemed; beloved,” conveying quiet elegance without excess length. Ezme suits many cultures and travels easily, aided by multiple spellings and the option of an accent to signal the older French form.
