Re: Does Amaya mean 'night rain' in Japanese?
Thank you for your answer! I think it is possible that someone heard the name Amaya, thought it was beautiful, and assigned some kanji to it to give it a nice meaning. There are tools on the internet which let you do this and I even found kanji for my (definitely not Japanese) first name. I also read several times now that 雨夜 sounds like Amayo and not like Amaya. It would be interesting to find out if the name has a Japanese background or not.
