The Name 'AMAR'!!

[Jimmy two-times]

Is the name Amar a muslim name or was it a hindu name? does anyone know?

This is the meaning of the name I have found:

'amar' from the name meaning immortal, he is full of energy, enthusiasm and exceptionally intelligent and well mannered.

have only heard hindus with that name...

one of my names is amar/aamar/ahmar but when I was at school we had muslims,hindus and sikhs who used this name.

but these r three separate names. how do u really spell it? i guess it could be ahmar which is an arabic name, probably meaning someone with red color.

ive cousins ahmar and amaar but never heard amar

[robosapien]

amaar is actually ammaar, which is also arabic.

[Jimmy two-times]

I used to spell it amar but then I changed it to ahmar.

but when you pronounce whatever way you spell the name it sounds the same does it not?

[Jimmy two-times]

if you spell amar backwards it spells rama but I dont if that is just a coincident or it has some meaning behind it?

i think the Muslim version is Aamir. I believe Amar is a hindu name from

just been to muslim names website and


'Ahmar' means "RED COLORED"

'Ammaar' means "One with strong Imaan. Also a Sahabi , one of the early muslims, son of Yasir and Sumaya Rad".

i think ammar and Amar are both muslim names , now im not sure what u mean by Amar, depends on how u pronounce it i guess, yar MERC what about the companion of the prophet (SAW) who was named Amr ibn Al Aas(RA). the conquenqeror of egypt? now that was AMR, then there was another sahabi named Ammaar (RA), whose parents, were among the first martyrs of islam, his mother Sumaya (RA) was killed(martyred) by Abu jahl i believe.
