Google and you shall find . . .I found a site, www.turkishculture.org which listed Turkish names and their meanings here:http://www.turkishculture.org/lifestyles/Is%20it%20a%20HE%20or%20a%20SHE.htmlAccording to this, Bihter means "most good". Can't vouch for its accuracy, but it's something! :-)

They're obviously refering to a Persian word that means 'better'.
Good= bih
Better = bihtar (or behtar)
Best = bihtareen (behtareen)
