History & Origin

Amanie is a modern spelling of Amani, from the Arabic amani, 'wishes' or 'aspirations,' and understood in Swahili as 'peace.' The soft '-anie' ending gives it a gentle American finish over a meaningful root.

It stayed rare, given to only about fifteen girls a year at its peak around 2004 rather than joining the more common Amani. A girl named Amanie then is still a child or teenager today.

Did you know? Amani carries two lovely meanings at once - 'aspirations' in Arabic and 'peace' in Swahili - so Amanie inherits a name of hopes and calm together.
