Spilled, poured, or name of a river
Gediz is a Turkish name derived from the Gediz River, the second-largest river in Anatolia flowing into the Aegean Sea. Etymologically, it is linked to the Old Turkish word for spilling or pouring, often associated with the movement of water. It is a rare choice in the United States, carrying a strong geographic and natural connection to Turkey.
