History & Origin

Khamyra is a modern coinage with no documented root. Readers often hear an echo of Amira, Arabic for 'princess' or 'leader', or of Kamira, but the Kh- and -yra spellings are contemporary American inventions rather than inherited forms. Routes uncertain, which we note (said 'kuh-MEER-uh').
