Omri — personal name borne by four Israelites, most notably the sixth king of the northern kingdom
A Hebrew proper name meaning possibly 'my sheaf' or 'pupil of Yah.' Most prominently, Omri was the powerful king of Israel who founded Samaria as his new capital (1 Kgs 16:16–28). So lasting was his dynasty's reputation that Assyrian records continued to call Israel 'the house of Omri' (Bit-Humri) long after his line had ended. The Moabite Stone likewise names him. Three other men bear this name: a Benjaminite (1 Chr 7:8), a Judahite (9:4), and a chief of Issachar under David (27:18).

The most prominent is King Omri of Israel, army commander acclaimed king by the troops at Gibbethon, who reigned from Tirzah and then built Samaria (1 Kgs 16:16–28).
