This is used in prayer, I would be pretty confused if I actually meet somebody named Amen one day.
"Amen" as a word used in ending the prayer comes from Hebrew's word meaning MAY SO SHALL IT BE...
As the word to end prayers, Amen comes from Hebrew and means "so be it". The name Amen, however, is completely unrelated to it. It ultimately comes from Egyptian, and means "the hidden one".
As to the comment above: 'Name' itself is an anagram of mean. Does it mean (pun most definitely intended) it's a bad word?
Think about it: Amen is what people say when they're done praying. This means zip, done, no more. What a terrible thing to call your child!
This is an anagram of mean, so it's a bad name.
When praying, many people end their prayers with the word "Amen". My parents always told me that "Amen" in this context means "I agree".
Well, you know what people would say. ^-^
