Seamor is in Origin.

Seamor is a modern, rare variant of Seymour, an English surname-turned-given name. Seymour derives from the Anglo-Norman toponym de Saint-Maur, ultimately from Latin Maurus, “Moorish; dark.” As a given name it gained currency in Britain and North America in the 18th–19th centuries, aided by the prominence of the Tudor-era surname (e.g., Jane Seymour). In the early 20th century it was also favored in some Jewish communities as an English stand-in alongside Shimon/Simon. Pronunciation is SEE-mor.

Variants include Seymour (standard), Seymore, Seymor, Seamour, and the playful Seemore; nicknames Sy, See, and Morey. While Seamor aligns etymologically with Saint-Maur, many modern parents also read it as a meaningful blend of sea + amor (“love” in Spanish), lending a poetic, nature-forward twist. Usage today is very uncommon, giving Seamor a distinctive, vintage-meets-modern profile with layered associations of heritage and affection.
