In the dictionaries

The name isn't in the classical dictionaries we use, so it is most likely a modern name. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.

Amreen (امرین) is a girl's name used by Muslim families in India and Pakistan. It does not appear in Arabic, Persian or Urdu dictionaries, and its meaning is uncertain. One common explanation is that it is a shortened form of Ambreen, from Persian ʿambarīn, "fragrant with ambergris"; others connect it with Arabic amr, "command", or give it as "princess". None of these is proven. On name lists it is most often given as "fragrant" or "noble".
