About Shamra
Shamra is listed in the CC0 Muslim Names Dataset as a female name. The source records its meaning as “Arabic for fennel, which is an aromatic plant that was originally found in the Mediterranean area and is used in cooking.”. Its origin label is stated directly in the source text. Its reader-friendly phonetic spelling is generated deterministically from the published transliteration and should be reviewed for names with complex or region-specific pronunciation.
Meaning and Arabic spelling are sourced from the Muslim Names Dataset or, where provided, the record-specific provenance URL. Origin labels are source-stated where available or transparently inferred from the published script or etymological signal. Phonetic respellings are generated reading guides, not native-speaker recordings. See Sources & methodology for data limitations.
