Omri?

[Starberries]

Opinions please.

I love Omri, it is in my top 2 if we get a ds3.
Gorgeous.

Lovely name.It really surprises me that it's rarely used.

Ooh, I've never heard it. It 'sounds' nice though.... Hmmm, you know what? I think I quite like it!

Really nice and not overused as many other names. Lovely choice!

I've never heard it before, but I quite like it. Where is it from?

I keep thinking this thread is about me... (often get shortened to 'Omi')

Nice name.

Great name!

Sorry, don't like it, sounds like some poncey way to change Henry or similar.

It is Hebrew, I think. Can't personally see any similarity with Henry..

I like it.

Sorry, not a fan. Sounds made up (although I know it's not), and too similar to Henri.

I love it. It reminds me of The Indian In The Cupboard books.

Lovely, but my DD is currently reading the Indian in the Cupboard, so biased via the book...

I don't like it. Sorry.

It sounds like something you chant at yoga.

I like it.

I like it, but I can see the Henry connection.
I know a very advanced 2 year old Henri, often mistakenly called Henry. His parents have taught him to chant AitchEeeEnAreEye-Onree to make it clear.

Nope, not Hebrew. Not a name commonly used in Israel anyway.

I get the Henry connection from the French pronunciation, I guess.

It sounds Egyptian or something. Nice, but maybe a bit out of place for an English family IMO.

Love it. Very underused, imo.

'tis Hebrew. An early king of the Israelites. See Wikipedia.

It also means something like "my love" or "my darling" in Arabic. That's how my Dh (Algerian) uses it anyway. But I don't think it's used as a name in Arabic - Dh not here so can't ask!

Grr, did not work, sorry.
Look there

I really like it but DP just gave a flat-out no.

I've got an Uncle Omri and he's Israeli.

Never met or heard of another.
