Is-Porsche-originally-a-Turkish-name?




Question: Is-Porsche-originally-a-Turkish-name?
Answer: Most probably

Here is a short story of my Friday this week:

*

actually I wanted to find out who Boris was and what his name means.

Wiki said to me:

Boris is the name of the first Christian Khan (later Knyaz) of First Bulgarian Empire.
Boris was a Turkish Ruler and his name is derived from Bars meaning leopard.

He is the first man in the history who carried the name Boris. After him the name became very popular in the Slavic Language area.

I found this website and at the end of the list you see the name "Porsche" from Germany.

                                                                        ⇓⇓⇓




Can this be confirmed?

I sought then further and found this website ⤋



https://www.motor1.com/news/226256/porsche-explains-company-name/

and the explanation I have read after watching the short movie.

Ferdinand Porsche is born in Czech Republic, 1875, that's why he has a Slavic name.

The author says after a couple of lines, that the origin of the name is Turkish "Boris" meaning wolf or leopard.

Wolf or Leopard?

I was not sure and I asked my dear Professor Osman Karatay what he thinks what Boris could means.
He confirmed me that it should be meaning Leopard.

Now, I can say at the end:

The name of the one of the most popular car brands is originally Turkish.

Shortly:


Porsche is a version of Boris
Boris is a Slavic version of the King Bars of Bulgaria (the ruler of the First Bulgarian Empire in 852–889)
Boris is derived from Bars meaning leopard in Turkish.


Bars > Boris > Porsche

Bonus:

There is now a very famous King Boris in England, The King of Brexit.
He has Turkish Granpa, Ali Kemal, who was 2 months long the Secretary of the Interior of the Ottoman Empire. He has Turkish origins, too!

2 times Boris a day? Too much?
