==Life==
Mahmud Namık [[Effendi]]<ref name=adg>{{cite book |year=2000 |publisher=Almanach de Gotha |edition=184th |title=[[Almanach de Gotha]] |page=365, 912-915 }}</ref><ref name=BP>{{cite book |year=1980 |publisher=Burke's Peerage |edition=2 |title=Burke's Royal Families of the World |page=247 }}</ref> was born in [[Dolmabahçe Palace]] and lived there until the death of his grandfather, Sultan [[Mehmed V]], just before the end of World War I on July 4, 1918. He then moved with his family to a [[Konak (residence)]] at [[Nişantaşı]] for the winter months and to one in Bağlarbaşı, above Beylerbeyi, for the summer.

Following the establishment of the [[Republic of Turkey]] and the [[abolition of the Ottoman Sultanate]] and the Ottoman Caliphate, the entire Imperial Ottoman family were forced into exile in March 1924. Mahmud Namık left his homeland at the age of 10, never to return to Turkey, since he died before the decree of exile was lifted. He was initially sent to boarding school in Lebanon, but then soon came to live with his family in Nice, France once they had settled there to be close to the former Ottoman Sultan [[Mehmed VI]], who had rented a villa in San Remo, and to their cousin the last Caliph of Islam [[Abdülmecid II]], who lived in Nice. In 1934 he moved to Alexandria, Egypt with his father, Prince [[Ömer Hilmi]] Efendi, and grandmother, and was later joined in January by his sister, Princess [[Emine Mükbile]], and his brother-in-law, Prince [[Ali Vâsib]] Efendi. He worked until the end of World War II for the Alexandria tramline company. In the late 1940s he established himself as a successful businessman and settled in Geneva, Switzerland where he developed his business interests in places as far apart as Pakistan and the USA. In 1958 he was asked to help negotiate the marriage of his cousin Princess Sabiha Fazila Hanimsultan, the only daughter of Prince Muhammad 'Ali Ibrahim Beyefendi of Egypt and Princess Zehra Hanzade Sultan, to King [[Faisal II of Iraq]]. The engagement was brutally brought to an end by the murder of King Faisal II, following a military coup on July 14, 1958. Mahmud Namık had a passion for music and in particular very much enjoyed playing the Spanish guitar.

He died at the age of 49 from a stroke, at Cairo, Egypt on November 13, 1963 and buried at Khedive Tawfik Mausoleum (Cairo), then transferred to Sultan Mahmud II Mausoleum (Istanbul) in 1987.
