Nagme is Persian in Origin.

Nagme is a feminine name in Turkish use, rooted in Persian Naghmeh and ultimately Arabic naghmah, all conveying the sense of melody, tune, or musical phrase. In Ottoman and Persian literary traditions, the word evokes the sweetness of song and the art of measured sound, giving the name an elegant, lyrical aura.

As a given name, it gained modern currency in Turkey in the 20th century; the standard Turkish spelling is Nağme (with ğ), while Nagme appears as a diacritic-free form in international settings. Common variants and transliterations include Naghmeh and Nagmeh (Iranian Persian) and Naghma or Nagma (South Asia). Related Arabic cognates are Nagham and Naghmah. Usage remains modest but recognizable, particularly among families with ties to music or classical arts, and the meaning aligns it with ideas of harmony, creativity, and expressive voice.
