Chagatai, a Central Asian Turkic language with Uyghur (and presumably Persian) influences. It was once common in Uzbekistan and is still studied in Turkey but is considered extinct. Salman Rushdie says that "babur" means "beaver" in Chagatai. (Rushdie, "The Enchantress of Florence.")

Presumably named after Chagatai, second son of Chinghis Khan.
