Amourah

Meaning of Amourah

Amourah is a rare feminine given name of French derivation, ultimately rooted in the Latin amor (“love”) via the French noun amour, to which the suffix –ah has been appended in its Anglo-American adaptation. First entering the U.S. Social Security Administration’s Top 1000 in 2019 at rank 939, it has maintained a modest yet steady presence—annual occurrences ranging from five to sixteen births—and achieved its highest recorded frequency (16) at rank 934 in 2024. Phonetically rendered /əˈmʊrə/ (uh-MOOR-uh), the name’s clear, balanced structure aligns with contemporary naming conventions while retaining its semantic emphasis on affection. Its usage profile underscores both its exclusivity and gradual ascendancy, rendering Amourah an analytically appealing choice for parents who seek a name that marries classical etymology with measured modernity.
