Meaning & Origin of Aimar
Meaning: Roughly 'home' + 'brave/hardy' (from Germanic elements haim and hard).
Origin: Basque (from Latinized Germanic Aymarus/Aimarus).
A common claim: Often glossed as 'home ruler' Actually: The '-hard' element actually means 'brave' or 'hardy,' not 'ruler,' so 'home ruler' is a mistranslation. The Germanic elements haim ('home') and hard ('brave/hardy') point instead to something like 'hardy at home.'
