@Everyone

So the Turks are from central Asia and the Turks in Turkey are Turks mixed with Arabs. Not really Turks-Turks like the ones from Kazakhstan but still Asian and still speaking a Turkish language. These Turks only migrated to Anatolia a few hundred years ago before that time various Antolian peoples lived in Anatolia one of them being the Greeks. Looking at Big E his history and the implications of his role it is quite likely - also if we were to look at the time period 8000 BC so before the founding of fucking Uruk which was the first city basically the first civilization - that he was Sumerian or part of some kind of prehistoric people we aren`t aware of but him being Sumerian is basically the best choice as this would make him all our ancestor and still not more closely related to anyone on earth. The Sumerians may have lived in Mesopotamia (the land of the Euphrates and Tigris, the Two River Valley, Modern Day Iraq) they are neither related to the Arabs living there today nor to the Assyrian minority - attention though do not confuse Assyrians with Syrians they completely different peoples Syrians are Arabs while Assyrians are the people of Assur most of which are Chaldean Christians today and most likely not Semites as far as I know still not the same Semites as Arabs. He is as related to them as to any other Semite, as to any other Germanic person, as to any Celtic person or as to any other Romance person and to an extend even as to any North Indian person. The Sumerians were the first progenitors of civilization and the creators of western civilization which was after their fall and various other invasions from different people see the Semites and Turks. The Turks are Asian and not related to the greater Indo-Germanic culture which stretches from Iceland to the Bengal.

To cut things short: the Emperor was likely Sumerian or Proto Sumerian and therefore had a Sumerian name. Looking at local practices like someone already said he would have been named after a god if he wasn`t born in 8000BC so before the founding of the cities. Meaning no aristocracy and no names chosen to honour gods -- maybe. No idea really. We have no written records of that time so we can`t really tell the culture of the people who might have lived there. Still we can speculate so his name could have been Nuru or Imaru which means light, Emuq or Sepsu so power or powerful or Zag like the shining of metals, Zamani for lightning or Baraqu as in to strike with lightning or to strike as lightning. I`d mainly say that these could be quite likely to be in some form related to his name looking at Big E`s favourite symbols.
