Revision as of 23:59, 9 December 2006 by Sampha1 (talk | contribs) (→In Media)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Samir and Sameer are both used to spell two completely different given names. One is of Arabic origin (سمير samīr "entertaining companion") traditionally given to Muslim males, and another is of Sanskrit origin (समिर samir "gust of wind"), traditionally given to Hindu males. In linguistic areas with populations of both Hindus and Muslims, two people can have names that sound the same (or almost the same, depending on the ambient language), but not actually have the same name.
As an Arabic-derived name, this may refer to:
- Samir Beloufa (born 1979), an Algerian footballer
- Samir Zaoui (born 1976), an Algerian footballer
- Samir Azzouz (born 1986), a Dutch terrorist suspect
- Samir Mathur (born 1986), a former terrorist suspect.
