Comments for the name Lamya

This name makes me think of a llama. A furry creature with big hairy hips. Like a hippo.

The meaning of this name sounds very sexual.

Bananarama, I was just going to say the meaning sounds sexual.

It's a sweet name, and I'm sure in Arabic/Middle Eastern Culture it's considered beautiful. But if you name your child this in an English-speaking country, the child should be prepared for some merciless teasing if the playground kids find out what her name means.

All I can think of when I see this name is Lamia from Greek mythology. It's still a lovely name.
