Şehzade Abdullah

This is an Ottoman Turkish style name. Abdullah is the given name, the title is Şehzade, and there is no family name.

Sehzade Abdullah (1522–1525) was an Ottoman prince (şehzade), as son of Suleiman the Magnificent, 10th Ottoman Sultan.[1] According to some sources, his mother was Hürrem Sultan.[2] In other sources it's said that he was born by Mahidevran Sultan.[3] Although most sources place him as Hürrem's son. He was born in 1522 in Topkapi Palace, the Ottoman Empire, and died at the age of three due to a disease in 1525 in Istanbul. If his mother was indeed Hürrem Sultan, he would be most likely Mihrimah Sultan's twin given the year of their births.
