Damar
Meaning of Damar
Damar (pronounced “duh-MAR,” /dəˈmɑr/) is a concise, two-syllable masculine name whose exact origins remain open to interpretation. Some sources see it as a variant of the South Slavic Damir, meaning “gift of peace,” while others point to echoes of the Arabic Amar, “long life.” In the United States, Damar first appeared on the Social Security Administration’s charts in the mid-1970s, climbed into the mid-600s by the mid-1980s, and in 2024 ranked 909th with 15 newborns given the name. Though it has never cracked the top 500, its steady presence appeals to parents seeking a modern, grounded choice—an impression furthered by figures like NFL safety Damar Hamlin.
