Endless, boundless, or mother
Imaya is a name with multiple potential roots, most notably from Sanskrit where it relates to the concept of being boundless or infinite. In some South Indian contexts, it is associated with the word for 'mother' or 'mountain range' (referencing the Himalayas). It is a rare, melodic choice that feels contemporary yet deeply rooted in ancient linguistic traditions.
