History & Origin

Savaya is a modern American coinage, assembled from parts already in the air: the Sav- of Savannah, the -aya ending of Maya and Amaya. It carries no inherited meaning, and no documented source lies behind it — the routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'suh-VY-uh').

It appears only rarely for girls in the U.S. Rare, invented, and vowel-bright.

Did you know? Savaya is built from two fashionable pieces: the Sav- of Savannah and the -aya of Maya and Amaya. Nothing older stands behind it, so its routes are uncertain, which we note.
