About Zahmir
The more traditional transliteration, Zamir, is currently the most popular option and features in the US Top 1000 - the Zahmir spelling is given to under 100 boys each year, but has been climbing in usage. This is a multicultural choice with roots in Arabic, Albanian, and as a non-biblical Hebrew name. Parents are picking up on all spellings of this name with Zamir, Zahmir, and Zymir given to a little over 600 boys last year in the U.S., potentially making these names feel more popular than you would expect.
Pronounced ZAH-meer.
As of October 2026, Zahmir ranked #2715 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #2060 in 2023.
