Nergiz is Turkish in Origin.

Nergiz is a feminine name found in Kurdish, Azerbaijani, and Turkish contexts, stemming from Persian Nargis/Narges (نرگس), the word for the narcissus or daffodil. The Persian term likely goes back to Greek narkissos and has long appeared in classical Persian and Ottoman poetry, where the nargis eye symbolizes captivating, almond-shaped eyes and springtime renewal. Through Persian and Urdu it spread across the wider Iranianate and South Asian worlds, keeping floral, graceful connotations.

Common variants include Nergis (Turkish), Nərgiz (Azerbaijani), Nargis/Narges/Nargess (Persian, Urdu, Hindi), and Nargiza (Uzbek, Tajik). The meaning centers on the narcissus flower and its associated qualities: beauty, elegance, alertness tinged with languor. Usage persists today in Turkey, Iran, Azerbaijan, Iraqi Kurdistan, and diaspora communities, where the name blends a timeless botanical image with regional identity.
