Turkish CAF
Here is my next cultural CAF: a Turkish family. I know the names are quite hideous to many people, but there are a lot of names in Turkey. For pronounciation: C is pronounced like J and Ç is pronounced like Ch, therefore Cemal = Jamal, and Çagatay = Chagatay. Some Turkish letters won't show up on the screen, so I typed in similar ones. The source of the names are the website at the bottom and the names of Turkish historical figures, politicians, celebrities, and athletes. Don't provide nicknames because I know nothing about nicknames in Turkey. Please note that a few names are unisex.DH: Can, Kayitbay, Afsar, Macit, Sinan, Üzeyir (deceased)
