Kösem Sultan (Ottoman Turkish: كوسم سلطان; c. 1589 – 2 September 1651), also known as Mahpeyker Sultan (Persian: ماه پيكر; lit. 'Visage of the Moon'), was the chief consort and legal wife of the Ottoman Sultan Ahmed I, valide sultan as the mother of sultans Murad IV and Ibrahim, and büyük ("elder") valide of Sultan Mehmed IV since 1649. She became one of the most powerful and influential women in Ottoman history, as well as a central figure during the period known as the Sultanate of Women.

This name was given to Mahpeyker Sultan by her husband, Sultan Ahmed I

According to the Italian traveler Pietro Della Valle, upon her conversion to Islam, her name was changed to Mahpeyker, and later by Ahmed I to Kösem, meaning "leader of the herd", implying her political intelligence and leadership, but it might also mean "hairless", in allusion to her smooth and hairless skin.
