Elmingir also Elminegeir, Elmingeir (fl.
555) was a Hun general fighting for the Byzantine Empire.
At the Siege of Phasis, he protected the Byzantine ships.
[1] His name is, probably coincidentally, a homophone of Tungusic elmin, "young horse".
If such were indeed the origin of his name it would make it the only known Tungusic word in the Hunnic vocabulary.
