The name Shmar is of Hebrew origin, meaning 'to keep watch' or 'guard'. It's a rare and distinctive name, often associated with individuals who possess a sense of responsibility and vigilance. In the Bible, it appears as the name of one of King David's mighty warriors in the Book of Samuel.
"Shmar had a consistent start with five babies born each year from 1995 to 1997 and again in 1999. The birth count then increased slightly to six in 2002, bringing the total number of Shmars born over this period to twenty-six."
