Promised by God
Amariyah is a modern elaboration of the Hebrew name Amariah, which appears in the Old Testament. It translates to 'Yahweh has said' or 'promised by God.' The addition of the 'h' at the end gives it a softer, more contemporary feminine flair while maintaining its deep spiritual roots.
About 33 girls were named Amariyah in 2025.
