Meaning & origin

Xiamara is a modern invented name that first appeared in U.S. birth records in 2004, reflecting a broader trend of creating distinctive names with the fashionable 'X' initial. Its peak popularity occurred in 2023, when it reached its highest rank on the charts. Since 2022, however, its usage has been falling. The name is most commonly found in Texas, one of the states where such creative coinages often gain traction. With a 2025 rank of 4,878 and an incidence of 1 in 59,528, Xiamara remains an uncommon choice, appealing to parents seeking a unique and melodic name for their daughters.

Xiamara first appeared in U.S. records in the early 2000s. It is likely a modern coinage, blending the fashionable prefix 'Xia-' (as in Xiomara) with the common suffix '-mara' (as in Mara or Tamara). The name has no established etymological roots in any traditional language.
