Usage: Tatar, Kyrgyz, Kazakh, Russian (Rare), Literature
Scripts: Эльмира (Tatar, Kazakh), Элмира (Kyrgyz), Эльмира (Russian)
Pronounced: ehl-MYEE-rə (Russian), ehl-MIE-rə (English), ehl-MEE-rə (English)
Meaning: Possibly derived from the Turkic word el meaning "nation, people, country" combined with the Arabic word أمير (amir) meaning "commander". Also a contraction of the Russian phrase электрификация мира (elektrifikatsiya mira) meaning "electrification of the world", and a shortened form of the Spanish name Edelmira. It appears in the play Tartuffe (1664) by the French playwright Molière (often known in French as Elmire). This name was created by Communist parents who were eager to reject traditional names while the Soviet Union was in power for most of the 20th century.

I think it's pretty when pronounced el-MEER-a, but el-MY-ra (long I in the middle) is an unpleasant sound to me. I suspect that in the U.S., people would assume it's the latter pronunciation.

Elmira is the name of an old residential street in downtown Mobile, Al. I believe it was named after the town in NY as it is parallel to streets Charleston, Augusta, Savannah & Selma (SC, GA, GA & AL respectively) which I think were were developed at the same time. It is also the name of an excellent upcoming "Zombie Panic!" barricade map.

This name makes me think of the girl from Tiny Toon Adventures, a show which I found quite hilarious. I also couldn't use it because the Elm- sound reminds me of Elmo and Elmer.

Well, I can't really remember now, but the past few months I've been doing a report on Edgar Allen Poe, and I think he had a wife named Elmira. Or an aunt. I just know somewhere in there there was a woman related to him named Elmira and I fell in love with the name.
