How Amir sounds

Say Amir out loud and it glides from one syllable to the next, which is how the scheme recognizes a water sound. Amir is on the way up in U.S. birth records, a name that is gaining ground.

The Saju view

The first sound is the heaviest in the pronunciation-element system, and for Amir it is earth, made with an open throat and a soft breath. Amir is an earth name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack earth. Because earth feeds metal in the cycle of generation, Amir can also help a chart that is short on metal, though less directly. A chart that already holds plenty of earth is better served by another name, since Amir would add to it.
