Bjarmi Origin and Meaning

The name Bjarmi is a boy's name meaning "gleam of light".

Bjarmi is a gentle and glowing name of Icelandic origin, which translates to "shine, gleam of light". An alternative theory is that it comes from the name of the Finno-Ugric people, the Permians, also called the Bjarmians in a number of Norse sagas. In this case, the name could mean "far-away land", "edge, verge", or "traveling-merchant".
