Meaning & History
Of Persian origin, but the meaning is uncertain. The first element of this compound name might possibly have been derived from Avestan Yima meaning "twin" (see Jam). The second element might have been derived from the Persian noun شیر (sher) meaning "lion" (see Sher). Also compare the second component of Ardashir.
