Amaria

Amaria is a feminine name that is a variant of the name Maria. It is derived from the Latin name Maria, which in turn comes from the Hebrew name Miryam.

The name Maria is thought to have two possible meanings - 'bitter' or 'beloved'. The 'bitter' meaning is based on the Hebrew root mar, meaning 'bitter'. The 'beloved' meaning is derived from the Egyptian word mry, meaning 'beloved'.

While the exact origin of the variant spelling Amaria is unclear, it is likely a combination of the Latin Maria and the English 'am' prefix, which can indicate a connection or relationship.

Amaria is a relatively modern variant of the classic name Maria, and it has seen increasing usage in recent decades as parents seek unique but familiar-sounding names for their daughters.
