Zamira Origin and Meaning

The name Zamira is a girl's name meaning "sweet voice".

An elegant, powerful, and multi-cultural name with various origins. In Arabic, it is related to either thought and the mind or to someone who is "slender and lean" depending on which etymological root you follow. In Hebrew, it can be a word name which translates to "nightingale" or occasionally, a feminine variation of Zimri. In Albanian, it means "sweet voice" but other sources link it to the name Samira which has both Arabic and Hindi origins. Moreover, its popularity in Spanish speaking countries may be attributed to its similarity to Casimira. While that hardly pins it down, it does make it an interesting name, that travels well, and carries with it perhaps just a hint of mystique.
