Should I name my baby girl Samar ?

[chayago]

Been thinking of Arabic names and so far Samar has been my favourite.

What do you think of it as a little girl’s name ?

My mil recommended Irha but I’m not a big fan of it

I’d go for Samara which definitely sounds like a girls name, and very lovely

Nice name, and easy to pronounce, can't really go wrong.

Irha probably more difficult to get to sound 'right'.

Love Noor though!

I like samar. And also noor.

I’d say Samir was the male version and would recognise Samar as female. I think I’d pronounce it Same-ar until you corrected me though. Samira and Samaria are also lovely.

I like Noor too. Elegant and unfrilly.

I really like it

I prefer Samara. That has 2 diminutives — Sam and Mara.

It's a lovely name and one I would think was a girls name.
Nouria would have been my choice if I was having a girl.
Irhas quite difficult to pronounce correctly unless you speak Arabic or urdu.
