Jahmal Origin and Meaning

The name Jahmal is a boy's name.

Jahmal appears to be a variant spelling of Jamal, which has Arabic origins meaning 'beauty' or 'handsome'. The name Jamal (جمال) has been used throughout many Arabic-speaking regions for centuries. The 'Jahmal' spelling variant emerged more prominently in the United States during the 1970s and continued to see moderate use through the 1990s. This spelling adaptation may reflect phonetic preferences or creative personalization. While the name has been embraced across various communities in the United States, it maintains its linguistic connection to Arabic origins. The name saw peak popularity in the late 1980s to early 1990s but has become less common in recent decades. The 'h' insertion in this spelling variation might be intended to emphasize the first syllable pronunciation.
