Comments (Meaning / History Only)

Tamir is not just Tall. The name Tamir means - upright, tall, loud, high class. The word Tamir expresses uprightness and exaltation in the physical and spiritual sense and is attributed to a set of qualities of nobility and to a person with unique virtues. Hence, parents who call their son this are wishing him to be able to face the difficulties he will face and move forward.
There is also a different name that is pronounced the same and written the same in English, but differently in Hebrew - טמיר (beginning with tet instead of tav.)
This name means "secret, hidden" (from a word usually used in religious context to describe a most holy secret or mystery.)
May be related to Hebrew "tamar", which means palm tree, but I've always known the meaning of this name to be "tall". [noted -ed]
