There really needs to be a third separate entry for Alma as a male name because of its derivation as such from the Book of Mormon, which is explained in other posts below. It is quite clear that in the United States the huge majority of men and boys named Alma have been from an LDS background, with the name most common by far in Utah, and are named after the Mormon religious figure, which has nothing to do with the Battle of Alma in the Crimean War. The Book of Mormon was first published in 1830, 24 years before that battle. [noted -ed]

My friend's name is Alma, but we call her Marie or Rie. She's the only Alma that I know, with the exception of her mom. I think it's more of a Spanish name than it is English, which makes sense considering the fact that my friend is Mexican.

Alma is the name of my daughter, it is very common in Mexico. I don't know why you don't include this this.
