What is the meaning of the name Azmi ?

The baby name Azmi is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced AZ-mee (IPA: /ˈæzmi/; Arabic pronunciation approx. /ʕaz.miː/).

Azmi is Arabic in Origin.

Azmi is a masculine given name and occasional surname rooted in the Arabic word ʿazm (عزم), meaning "resolve, firm intention, determination." The nisba ending -ī forms ʿAzmī, "one characterized by determination," which traveled widely with Islamic literary and onomastic traditions. It appears in Ottoman Turkish sources as a personal name and laqab/mahlas, remains current among Arabic speakers, and became well established in Urdu and Malay/Indonesian naming, where it serves as a common modern given name. In South Asia it also functions as a nisba-style surname, sometimes marking cultural or geographic affiliation.

Variants and spellings include 'Azmi, Azmy, and Aazmi; feminine forms such as Azmiya/Azmiyya occur in Arabic. In Turkish and Malay the spelling typically stays Azmi. The name denotes steadfastness, willpower, and purposeful perseverance - "one who is resolute" - and should not be confused with 'Azim (ʿAẓīm), which means "great, mighty."
