Question

We are deciding on our baby girls name and we were thinking of the name Amayah. Please advise on your thoughts or if theres a name similar with a good meaning?

Answer

Amayah means ignorance or folly. Few good names for girls are Faatima, Aysha, Asma, Maryam.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
