When you hear the name Lamaar, it's virtually impossible not to instantly think of superstar rapper and lyrical genius Kendrick Lamar. Despite being popularized by the multi-award-winning artist and also basketball pro, Lamar Odom, this gender-neutral given name stems both German and Arabic origins. It means "land famous" or "the water." The Arabic interpretation is perhaps the most enticing, for Lamar means "liquid gold."
