An uncommon Hebrew pick — distinctive and rare.
Isamar is a girl's and boy's baby name of Hebrew origin, a variant of Itamar, meaning 'palm island' or 'land of palms.' Itamar was a son of Aaron in the Old Testament. The feminine -ar ending makes it distinctly melodic and internationally appealing.
Isamar climbed 570 spots in the last 20 years — from #3657 to #3087.
