Ramata Forename Meaning
User-submitted Reference
This name derives from Rahmatullah (raHmatu llâh), an Arab name. It comes from two words raHma (رحمة), meaning 'mercy', and allâh (الله), meaning 'God' in Arabic, or 'divine mercy'. The traditional Muslim greeting being as-salâmu `alaykum wa-raHmatu llâh i ta`âla wa-barakatuh (may the peace and mercy of Allah be upon you). The expression raHmatu llâh is extremely common among Muslims around the world, a bit like Ave Maria or Paternoster among Roman Catholics. It is therefore not surprising to find it in the form of a female first name from Asia to Africa, undergoing some transformations according to the pronunciation of Arabic in these different populations. In Africa (especially in Senegal), it is common to pronounce it Ramatoulaye, like Abdallah. This link refers to a disambiguation page there often becomes Abdoulaye for example. In France, it is often shortened to Rahma or Rama.
