History & Origin
Khamiya has no documented etymology. It reads as a modern American coinage in the well-populated -miya family, next to Kamiya, Amiya and Tamia, dressed with the decorative Kh- opening that has become popular in recent decades. Because a sound-alike is an echo and not descent, we do not attach it to any older word, and present Khamiya honestly as a coinage of uncertain route (said 'kah-MEE-uh').
It appears only in very small numbers in the U.S. Rare, soft, and newly emerging.
