No etymology is suggested.
Cf. KJV GN Nimrah = Hebrew ''nimrā'' ([http://www.lds.org/scriptures/ot/num/32.3?lang=eng#2 Numbers 32:3]), Beth-Nimrah ([http://www.lds.org/scriptures/ot/num/32.36?lang=eng#35 Numbers 32:36]; [http://www.lds.org/scriptures/ot/josh/13.27?lang=eng#26 Joshua 13:27]).
 
If biblical names may be appealed to, see '''NIMRAH''' (''nimrāh'') in [http://scriptures.lds.org/en/num/32/3#3 Numbers 32:3] ([[John A. Tvedtnes|JAT]]). See also biblical ''nāmēr'', “leopard, panther” ([[John A. Tvedtnes|JAT]], BU). The Ebla GNs ''namarki'' and ''namaraatki''
could be from the same root, the latter being feminine and thus similar in form to the Hebrew GN ([[John A. Tvedtnes|JAT]]).  


It has been suggested that other [[JAREDITES|J<small>AREDITE</small>]] names ([[CORIANTUM|C<small>ORIANTUM</small>]], [[CORIANTOR|C<small>ORIANTOR</small>]], [[SHIBLON|S<small>HIBLON</small>]]/[[SHIBLOM|<small>M</small>]], [[LEVI|L<small>EVI</small>]], [[LIB|L<small>IB</small>]], [[NIMROD|N<small>IMROD</small>]]) appear to be lion and leopard names (BU, NPSEHA 150.0 [Aug. 1982]).
Cf. Sumerian Nibru<sup>ki</sup> (*NIBUR) = Nippur.
