Of course, if you pronounce it ay-mayl or ah-mahl, then it cannot be considered a variant of Emil.

Another form of Amal is a feminine version, Amalia. This means Work of God.
Amal - 'Work'
ia (pronounced - Ya) - 'God'
As a bearer of this name, this Hebrew translation holds much more meaning than the usual German translation of Amalia which is simply 'Work'. The end sound is not acknowledged, but the Hebrew understanding of the word 'Ya' makes a lot of difference.
