Work power or divine ruler
Amery is a variant of the Germanic name Emery, which stems from the elements 'amal' meaning work and 'ric' meaning power or ruler. While traditionally masculine, it has evolved into a sleek, gender-neutral choice for modern parents. It shares the same roots as the more common Amerigo and Amelia.
