Re: Can someone help me?
Especially for monosyllabic and bisyllabic names, it is important to specify the language/culture the name is from: I suspect the same name will occur in more than one culture quite commonly.The root mR in Sanskrit is cognate with the root of mortal, and means to die. a- negates the sense and amara (the last -a is not pronounced in modern Indian languages) means immortal. It has been used as a name for people, plants, and things from ancient times, and it is still heard.I don't recognize aman as a name.
