Aytek is a Turkish masculine given name. The name is composed by one word and a suffix: Ay and -tek. In Turkish, "Ay" means Moon, and the suffix, "-tek" originally comes from Old Turkic suffix "-teg", which gives the meaning of "-like". The meaning of the name therefore is "like the Moon" or "Moonlike", or particularly "unique and/or bright like the Moon".
