Meaning & origin
Amyriah is a modern girl's name that first appeared on the U.S. baby name chart in 2004, a time when elaborate -yah endings were gaining popularity. Its peak year came in 2010, after which it entered a steady decline starting in 2011.

Its etymology is uncertain, but it likely draws inspiration from the Arabic name Amiri, meaning 'prince', combined with a feminine suffix.
