Anam can be a given name or a surname. It is of Arabic origin and it means "blessed" [1].
A friend
soul
It is the word for "friend" but the C is modified from the original "Caraid". "Standard" Irish uses "cara" but Scottish Gaelic and Galway Irish use "caraid".
Better spelled m'anamchara some want this to mean 'soulmate' because it literally mean 'soul-friend' however in Irish the meaning is 'spiritual adviser', 'confessor' or 'chaplain'.The Scottish Gaelic version Anam-charaid means 'bosom friend' or 'soul-friend'. 'A man or woman who says the death-blessing over a dying person'.If you want to say soulmate in Irish fíorghrá(true-love) is probably more accurate.
"Solas na bhFlaitheas dá anam uasal" means "The light of heaven on his noble soul"
