  1. I was looking for a name for my beautiful baby girl on net, and I came across the name TAMARA , so I say wooow, what a nice name, and I continue looks for the meaning of name and I really love the meaning too.
    Thank you

  2. I HAVE SPOKEN RECENTLY WITH A LADY CALLED TAMARA I MENTIONED WHAT A LOVELY NAME AND SEARCHED ON -LINE FOR THE MEANING ITS MY FAVOURITE NAME NOW PLUS MY FAVOURITE TREE AND SIMPLY IN MY OPINION TOP CLASS ALONG WITH THE FACT ITS EASY TO SPELL THANK YOU BEST WISHES FROM BARRIE . GOD BLESS YOU ALL .

  3. Looking and thinking about lots of names…Just looked on the sky and waited and here how the name came. 😀

  4. My name is Tamara, pronounced as “tomorrow” with a short “a” sound at the end. I was born in the mid-50s and named after a famous Russian ballerina who my parents saw perform on television. I’ve always enjoyed my name even though there are three ways to pronounce it; my way, ‘ta-ma-rah and ta-‘mare-ah. To top it off, my father worked for the federal government and we moved around a lot during the 60s so I was constantly correcting the pronunciation of my name.

  5. We chose Tamara as a derivative of Tamar from the Bible, as she is the beginning of the bloodline from Judah to the Messiah.

  6. Beautiful meanfull name. Our first grandchild of 2 years old name is Tamara

  7. My husband is British and I am Russian, so we wanted to choose a name that sounds good in both languages. After quite a few days considering all the different options this is the one that we both liked and was easy to say in both languages!
    It’s also a name that is quite old and traditional, but at the same time not too common, which is what we wanted.
