[Facts] Re: Eimar
in reply to a message by Cleveland Kent Evans
Thank you for your answer.
I saw it by coincidence in the film "The Addams Family." Morticia was strolling in the family graveyard with Uncle Fester and mentioned "poor uncle Eimar" to him. So it's about a male name in this case. It was pronounced as EYE-mahr, too.

It seems the Germanic name Aimar, variant of Aimard/Haimard, that has been also documented as Heimard (in Förstemann's book, for example), coming from the Germanic elements haim/heim, "house", and hard, "hard, strong".
