History & Origin

Namiri is a contemporary American name that sits comfortably beside Amiri, Kamari and Jamari. Some families hear an East African echo in it; others simply like the shape. Neither reading is documented as its source, and we prefer to say so — routes uncertain (said 'nuh-MEER-ee').

It appears only rarely in the U.S. Rare, warm, and modern.
