I've never heard this name. Where does it come from?

First impressions are that it sounds like some kind of computer brand or something. It's definitely very unique . Also sounds more masculine than feminine to me.
However I like 'Marie' as a potential nickname, or Oma or something.

I know an Omari who is a boy.
Maybe just Mari for a girl (pronounced Mar-ee rather than Mah—rie like Marie)

I know a couple of boys called Omari.

I've only ever known it used for boys.

Never heard of it but I like it!
I wouldn’t have Oma as a nickname, it means grandma in German. 😂

It's a boys name, like Omar. What about Imaani or Omolara for a girls name?

How about Amara

It’s a boys name.

I've never heard it but like it! As its unusual I'm not sure it matters what the gender is traditionally. But I do like Mari and Amara as PPs suggested.

Currently teach a boy called Omari. Not heard of it being a girl name, that's not to say it couldn't, but I would think Amari more girl.

Sounds made-up

123Dancewithme · 09/10/2019 21:08

I thought it was a boys names. How about Amara?

What about Mari or Mahi?
