According to some sources on the interwebs, the definition of the name Omar is “flourishing, long-lived, eloquent, and gifted speaker .”
From the Online Etymology Dictionary:
flourish (v.) c. 1300, "to blossom, grow," from Old French floriss-, stem of florir "to blossom, flower, bloom; prosper, flourish," from Latin florere "to bloom, blossom, flower," figuratively "to flourish, be prosperous..."
thrive (v.) c. 1200, from a Scandinavian source akin to Old Norse þrifask "to thrive," originally "grasp to oneself," probably reflexive of þrifa "to clutch, grasp, grip, take hold of" (compare Norwegian triva "to seize." )
“I thought about it for a minute and concluded that I would have to refuse the winnings under these circumstances, since this was a mistake.”
That pesky logic and thinking... Perhaps if your dream hadn't been interrupted, you would have made friends with your inner “Omar!”
