Meaning & History

Although it has occasionally been used as a short form of Gaioz and Tengiz, this name is typically used as an independent name, of which the meaning and linguistic origin is uncertain. According to a Russian source, the name is of Turkic origin and basically means "to travel".

A known bearer of this name was the Georgian writer and poet Gizo Nishnianidze (1928-2011).
