Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Arabské Amira, أميرة (amīra), je ženským náprotivkom mena Amir a označenia amīr, teda kniežaťa alebo veliteľa; znamená „princezná, kňažná“. Základom je koreň ʾ-m-r súvisiaci s prikazovaním. Nezávisle existuje hebrejské Amira, ženská podoba mena Amir, spájaného s významom „vrcholec stromu“. Ide o dve samostatné jazykové tradície, nie o spor o jedinú etymológiu.
