I have found it on the UK top 1000 list and in the Alberta top names, though it is at the lower end, 5 babies per year. When I Google search it, it is all Ethiopian women with this name. Also, on names.com, submitters are stating it is “Eritrean “ and “Ethiopian" for a holy mountain but I know it is not reliable. Perhaps it is from Tigrinya?

It's probably from a language other than Amharic. It might be Oromo, since Oromo is also widely spoken in Ethiopia.
