Alper is a rare masculine Turkish given name. It is composed of the two words alp and er. In Turkish, "Alp" means "Stouthearted", "Brave", "Chivalrous", "Daredevil", "Valorous", and/or "Gallant". The second, er means soldier or male. Additionally Alper is used as an adjective for an ancient legendary Turkish commander; Alp Er Tunga who lived around 300 B.C.
From the same Asian cultural roots, Alper is closely related to name 勇士 (Japanese yuushi, Chinese yǒngshì) derived 勇 = Alp and 士 = Er words.
Brave, hero (a title of respect used to address the brave by Turkic people in old times).
