Interesting to know that about Tugela, I'd never seen it before and I just assumed it was honoring.
My Hungarian dictionary (yes, I have one of those) lists Levente as an ancient Hungarian name meaning 'being' (I've also seen 'peaceful' on some websites). Levent is probably a form of that or maybe a misspelling in the BA. Who knows if/how it's related to the Turkish name. It's been user-submitted: http://www.behindthename.com/submit/view.php?name=levente

I've never seen Gego as a full name either, I've only seen it as a nickname and not related to the name or last name of the person.
