Kudrettin as a Baby Name. Meaning and Origin of Kudrettin

What is the meaning of the name Kudrettin ?

The baby name Kudrettin is a Male name and is pronounced {'ipa': '/kuˈdret.tin/', 'respelling': 'koo-DRET-teen'}.

Kudrettin is Turkish in Origin.

Kudrettin is a Turkish masculine name of Arabic derivation, built from qudrat/qudra (قدرة, “power, might, capability”) and al‑dīn (الدين, “the faith, religion”). In Ottoman Turkish the second element assimilated to -eddin/-ettin, giving the meaning “power of the faith” or “might of religion,” one of the honorific -uddīn compounds common across the Islamic world.

The name circulated in the Ottoman period among learned and administrative circles and persisted into early Republican Turkey; today it is rare and reads as traditional. Variant spellings and cognates include Kudretin, Kudretdin, Qudrat al‑Dīn, and South Asian Qudratuddin/Qudrat‑ud‑Din; the clipped Turkish form Kudret serves as a modern short form. Related formations like Qudratullah share the same root. Overall, Kudrettin signals strength, capability, and steadfastness within a religious frame.
