Amir (also spelled Ameer or Emir, Arabic: اَمير, Turkish: Emir, Persian: امير, Hebrew: אמיר, pronounced [aːmˈiːr]) is a masculine name with three meanings, one is Arabic/Hebraic origin derived from the three letters AMR which means 'to give orders' or a "Prince". The title Emir in Arabic, which is essentially the same word as Amir, therefore means: "one who gives orders".
It also means summit of a tree in Hebrew or a pile of harvested wheat (עמיר); and other one in Persian is pronounced in the same way but it has a different meaning, it consists of two parts; "A" which means "Un" and "mir" which is the root of the verb "Mordan" (to die), so Amir in Persian means "the one who [his spirit and his memory] will never die".
See amir.
Derived from the Arabic Amir (prince, emir) and from the verb amara (to command, to rule).
