My name is Nyree. I read on the message board that someone's sister was named after the same lady I am named after, Nyree Dawn Porter, of The Man from U.N.C.L.E. I am from Alabama. At my job I met a man from Texas who named his daughter after the same lady. I was told by a co-worker that the name is arabic and that it means "fire". That was the first meaning of the name that I came across. The other was that it was swedish and meant "water nymph". Also, I had another co-worker is from Morrocco who told like Americans say "Oh my God,Oh my God" really fast and over and over when something happens, they say "Nyree, Nyree" over and over.
