Loved
Amias is a name of Latin origin, likely derived from 'amatus' meaning loved. While it sounds like a biblical name, it is actually a surname-turned-first-name that gained traction in England during the 16th century. It has recently seen a revival in the United States as a softer, more unique alternative to names like Silas or Elias.
