Any thoughts about Emhyr var Emreis' real life etymology?

Just hit me while wasting time is that "Emhyr" is much similar to Turkish word "emir" which has its roots from Arabic word "amir", both have the meaning of "commander in charge."

Also, his surname includes "reis" which is also used in Turkish for "chief" or "chairman".

Considering Emhyr's character, I think these can be related. Sapkowski likes picking distant words like "Demawend". What do you think?
