Itkan is an indirect Quranic name for girls that means “excellence”, “mastery”, “proficiency”. It is derived from the T-Q-N root (mastery, perfection) which is used in the Quran in Surat an-Naml (The Ants):

And you will see the mountains and think them solid, but they shall pass away as the passing away of the clouds. The Work of Allah, Who perfected all things, verily! He is Well-Acquainted with what you do. (Quran 27:88)
