What is the meaning of the name Nebahat ?

The baby name Nebahat is a girl name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced neh-bah-HAHT.

Nebahat is Arabic, Turkish in Origin.

Nebahat is the Turkish form of Arabic nabāhah, written نَباهة, an abstract noun built on the Semitic root n-b-h. In Arabic this root covers being alert, noticed, or eminent; the noun carries the literal sense of vigilance, wakefulness, distinction, or honorable renown. Ottoman Turkish adopted the word as nebâhet, and modern Turkish spelling regularized it as Nebahat, with final -t reflecting the Arabic feminine ending in learned loans.

As a given name, Nebahat belongs chiefly to Turkish and Ottoman-influenced Muslim naming practice rather than to early Arabic personal-name tradition. It is recorded among women in Turkey and in Turkish diaspora communities in Europe, with public bearers including actress Nebahat Çehre, activist Nebahat Akkoç, and politician Nebahat Albayrak. Nabahat is a closer transliteration of the Arabic form; Nibahat appears as a spelling variant. Current use is recognizable but not especially fashionable among younger Turkish births.
