From Old Turkic (amran-, to love, desire). Also related to Old Turkic (amrıl-, to be quiet), (amul, gentle, quiet), derived from Proto-Turkic *ăm-. The verb Turkish imrenmek (to love, desire/to feel a longing) has been based on a same origin. Turkic Khagan Amrak is the oldest known bearer of this name. Yunus Emre, Tapduk Emre and similar Old Turkish bards/folk poets have used the "Emre" as nickname or title. Altaicists compare to Mongolian амар (amar, rest, bliss).
