All around the world, Shamse (Shamse 
) is quite a rare largely masculine, but seldom feminine forename. The forename Shamse is habitual in Qatar, where it is a rare boy's name, Saudi Arabia, where it is a rare dominantly boy's, but seldom girly name, and Algeria, where it is a very rare girly name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in India, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt. Much less frequently, Shamse is the last name as well as the forename.
