Omar is a common variation of the arabic name Umar meaning life or living. The name omar means fistborn, disciple, or famous. The name is specifically derived from the arabic language for it's favorable meaning. In addition the name is shared by the second caliph of the religion. Omar is a common name among sunni muslims but not among shi'ites.
