[Opinions] Amaya
I love the meaning of this name and since I am half Japanese half anglo mutt I like the Idea of using the Japanese name but not set on it.Amaya means Nigt RainOkay my question is ...
1. Is it to much like..."Am I a ____" Like Ima and Ura Hogg
2. Does anyone know any names that have this meaning?

I love Amaya. I've never thought of "Am I a ...?" before, so it'd only be relevant if your surname doubles up as a vocab word._____________________________________________________________________"My universe is laced around your wrist; I am the bracelet you sport."Elinor
