Around the world, شيمار (Shemar 
, شيمار 
) is quite a rare predominantly masculine, but very infrequently feminine forename. The forename شيمار is habitual in Latin America and the Caribbean, particularly Jamaica, where it is quite a common masculine name, Trinidad and Tobago, where it is quite a rare masculine name, and Bolivia, where it is a rare male name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in Jamaica, Philippines, and the United States. Much less frequently, شيمار is the last name as well as the forename.
