Star of the sea
Itzamar is a modern Hispanic name likely formed by combining the Mayan root 'itza' (enchanted or water) with the Spanish word 'mar' (sea). It is often associated with the Virgin Mary through the title Stella Maris. The name carries a lyrical, coastal quality and is particularly rare in the United States.
