"Blend of Sol and Mar"
The name Solimar is commonly a female name from the "Spanish" origin.
Solimar joins two ordinary Spanish nouns: sol, meaning sun, and mar, meaning sea. The pair is familiar from the Spanish phrase sol y mar, and joined forms of the two words are used as given names in Spanish-speaking countries. It reads as a transparent compound of vocabulary words rather than as a name inherited from an older naming tradition.
The pronunciation of Solimar is soh-lee-MAR.
