Imeri
Imri
Imri — a proper masculine name referring to two individuals within Israelite genealogies in the Hebrew Bible. As a personal name, its primary lexical meaning is likely 'eloquent' or 'spoken' (derived from the root meaning 'to speak, utter, say, command'), though as with most biblical proper names, the meaning is secondary to its function as an individual identifier. The name occurs in genealogical lists without further narrative detail or ascription of personal characteristics.
