Lamees meaning
Lamees (لمیس) is a Muslim girl's name of Arabic origin (Urdu usage).
(of a woman) soft to the touch
Also used to mean: gentle
Lamees (لمیس) is the Arabic lamīs, from the root l-m-s, "to touch or feel". Lane's lexicon, citing the classical Qāmūs, defines lamīs as a woman who is soft to the touch; the verb lamasa means to feel something with the hand, and lams is touch. Name lists give Lamees as "soft" or "soft to the touch", in line with the dictionary, though a few add other meanings with no support in the sources. The name is used in the Arab world and by Muslim families in India.
