JamayaWhile a 'net search suggests that Jamaya may be an Arabic/Islamic word or name, I wasn't able to decipher its meaning.I'm kinda intrigued with this name, myself, seeing as how there were 82 girl babies born in the U.S. and issued Social Security cards with their name given as "Jamaya" last year, and 9 named "Jamayah".I'll probably ring up one of the foreign embassies later today and run it past them, as I've done that before with success. Just keep checking this message board for your answer, in case I (or someone else) finds it for you.-- Nanaea

Well, my first name is Jamilaih (Arabic) and for some reason my brother and sister didn't like my name when I was younger and decided to call me Jamaya instead. I had no idea so many girls had this name. Cool!!

Meaning of "Jamaya" (Here's one for the database, Mike!)I called my friend at the Algerian Permanent Mission to the United Nations and he told me that the feminine name of "Jamaya" means "reunion" in Arabic.-- Nanaea

Hi, I have been searching the net for the meaning of Jamaya as we named our daughter this name. I have also found out that there is an association called The Jamaya (or the association of free prisoners) in Iraq. Do you have any extra information now on the name Jamaya?
Thanks,
