History & Origin

Lameir is a contemporary U.S. coinage in the Jamir/Damir/Lamir family, built by fitting the La- prefix to the ending of Amir — Arabic amir, 'prince, commander'. The pattern of prefix plus admired root has produced hundreds of American names; this spelling is new and undocumented, so routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'luh-MEER').

It appears only very rarely for boys in the U.S. Rare, blend-built, and modern.

Did you know? Amir — inside Lameir — is Arabic for 'prince' or 'commander'; the La- opening is a modern American addition, which we note (said 'luh-MEER').
