Sahmir

Sahmir is a male first name.

Sahmir – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a boy named Sahmir in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Sahmir in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Sahmir by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Sahmir ranks at #6,007. That means there are 6,006 more common boys names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Sahmir.
