History & Origin

Itzamara is a modern Latina/Mexican coinage joining an Itza- element — echoing Nahuatl/Maya itz, 'dew, sap; obsidian; magic' (as in Itzel) — with a -mara ending, echoing Amara, 'eternal/grace', and Mara, 'of the sea; bitter' (routes layered, which we flag). It has no single fixed root; the lyrical sound carries it (the tz said 'ts', so 'eet-sah-MAH-rah').

In the U.S. it appears in Mexican-heritage families. Rare, an-Itza-element at the root, and lyrical.
