Umama is an indirect Quranic name for girls. It is an ancient Arabic word and means “three hundred camels” (the same way that the Arabic girl name Hend means “a hundred camels”). It is derived from the A-M-M root which many Quranic words are derived from, such as Ummah (nation, creed) and Umm (mother).

Umama is also a Sahabiyyah name.
