Omree is Hebrew in Origin.
Omree is a modern English spelling of the Biblical Hebrew name Omri (Hebrew ʿOmri, עָמְרִי). The etymology is debated; many lexicons connect it to ʿomer, “sheaf (of grain),” yielding readings like “sheaf” or “my sheaf,” while others simply mark the meaning as uncertain. Despite the similar look, it is unrelated to the Sanskrit sacred syllable Om.
In the Hebrew Bible, Omri was a military commander who became king of the northern kingdom of Israel and founded the Omride dynasty in the 9th century BCE; the name also occurs in later genealogies. Use in English is rare but has grown with contemporary interest in biblical and Israeli names; in modern Hebrew, Omri is familiar for boys. Omree represents a phonetic variant favored in English to signal the final -ee sound. Related forms and spellings include Omri (standard), Omry, and Amri.
