in reply to a message by I like old names
Almost certainly, it means “fine love” from Spanish “amor” + “fina”

Thanks! It wouldn't explain the variants though.

It actually does explain the variations, as not every country that speaks Spanish has the same accents and hence not the same pronunciation. I agree it is probably a transcription of a Filipino pronunciation. The Philippines were of course colonized by the Spanish for many years.
