Tamris; gender, female. Pronounced tam-riss. Ethnic background; deprived from tamis, which is from Tanis, which is from Tanith, meaning "serpent lady" in Near Easter Mythology. However, since I've never seen this name anywhere else except on my birth certificate, I assume it means something else.

Near Easter Mythology - a collection of urban legends that occurred on or around Easter.
deprived from - a variant of "derived from" used when the new derivation has lost its original meaning.
