History & Origin

Ashmira is a modern coinage. The -mira ending recalls Arabic-rooted names such as Amira ('princess') and Samira ('companion in evening talk'), while Ash- is one of the most productive openings in current English naming. A sound-alike is an echo rather than descent, so we note the uncertainty (said 'ash-MEER-ah').

It appears only in very small numbers in the U.S. Rare, sleek, and newly emerging.

Did you know? Ashmira sits between two busy naming families - the Ash- names like Ashley and Asher, and the -mira names like Amira and Samira - without descending from either.
