History & Origin

Tamea appears in United States records from the late nineteen-forties as a scattered rarity, but its small high comes much later, in 2007, echoing the popularity of Tamia and similar Tam- names.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year even at its peak, with records reaching into the twenty-tens. A girl named Tamea at that high point would be in her late teens today. The name reads as a gentle, modern coinage rather than an inherited one.

Did you know? Tamea shares the airy -ia and -ea endings that made Tamia and Mariah feel so current, giving a familiar Tam- opening a fresh, melodic close.
