A respelling of Elmira, Elmeera's origins are as wide-ranging as the sky or sea. Perhaps it's a Spanish variant of Adelmar, an Old German title that translates to "famous and noble." Though your Elmeera's future will undoubtedly be very busy and successful, they'll always make time for those who've cheered them on from the beginning.

Once bestowed in honor of "the electrification of the world," Elmeera will encourage your child to be the first spark in every blaze of positive change.
