Indeed the meaning of Buriram is The City/Town of Happiness. Buri is the part that means City/Town and Ram is the Happy bit.
The word Buri meaning cigarette would actually be spelt Buhri.
Hope this helps

You're thinking English, not Thai. The English letters 'ram' can represent several different Thai words, not just the one you quote.

Yes indeed. This is one of the reasons that I decided to learn how to read and write Thai. รัมย์ = ram = Happy รำ = ram = by product of rice.Or Thai dancing. This word is very unusual as there are 2 meanings but only one spelling and one pronunciation. ราม = ram = a hero in classical Thai literature. บุรี = buri = town/city บุหรี่ = buhri = cigarette Hope this helps.

I started this thread after seeing the stone sign outside Ramkhamhaeng University Campus. I went past it again today; the exact wording is REGIONAL CAMPUS IN HONOUR HIS MAJESTY KING BUREERUM
The strange spelling is just an alternative transliteration. What I think has happened is that the sign has got garbled in the translation, and should read/mean "Buriram Regional Campus in Honour of His Majesty the King"
I don't really think "King Bureerum" is even a fantasy, just a mistake in the translation.
