Prince or commander
Amyri is a modern feminine variation of the Arabic name Amir, which traditionally means prince, commander, or someone who prospers. While the masculine Amir is ancient, this specific spelling and its use for girls is a contemporary American innovation. It combines a regal heritage with a soft, rhythmic ending popular in modern naming trends.
