Origin: Arabic
Meaning: hope
Encourage your daughter to be a dreamer with the Arabic name Amala. Meaning "hope," she'll know it's okay to embrace her wishful nature and always dream of something better. This name is doubly meaningful because you'll have hoped for Amala's safe arrival into your life and what better way is there to welcome the newest addition to your family than with a reminder that she was what you were dreaming of? Amala has roots in Sanskrit too, where its meaning of "clean" and "pure" can emphasize the importance of following her gut instinct to do what's right.
