History & Origin

In Yakut usage the name carries the calm sense of 'peace' or 'tranquility'. It is a short, balanced name, two even syllables with an open ending. The same form turns up at the head of longer compound names like Amanmammet and Amangeldi.

Bearers span very different worlds: the Russian statesman Aman Tuleyev (1944-2023), long governor of Kemerovo Oblast, and the young wrestler Aman Sehrawat, born in 2003, an Olympic bronze medalist. The name's peaceful meaning travels easily across the languages that use it.
