Tambra

Tambra is a feminine name with a melodious, rhythmic quality. It appears to be a variant of Tamara, which derives from the Hebrew name Tamar meaning "date palm" or "palm tree." The altered spelling gives it a more distinctive, contemporary feel while maintaining the pleasing sound of the original. Tambra gained modest popularity in the United States during the 1960s and 1970s but has since become uncommon. The name's sound evokes musical associations through its similarity to the tambourine instrument. Tambra offers parents a slightly unusual alternative to more common names while still being intuitive to pronounce and spell.

Pronounced TAM-brah.
