Amipah is in Origin.

Amipah is a rare modern given name, most likely a creative blend rather than a term with a single, traceable root. The opening element Ami resonates across languages: French ami “friend,” Hebrew Ami “my people,” and Japanese Ami (variously written, often “net” or “Asia/second + beauty”). It also echoes South Asian names like Amita “boundless” and Amiya “nectar.” The closing -pah recalls the Uto-Aztecan toponymic element pah “water” found in names such as Tonopah and Pahrump, lending a nature-tinged twist.

Used sporadically since the late 20th century, Amipah has no established historical bearers and remains outside major popularity charts, appealing for its gentle rhythm and multicultural feel. Meanings are interpretive; parents commonly read it as “beloved one” or “friend of the people.” Variants include Amipa, Amipahh, and Ameepah; nicknames Ami, Mia, and Pah. Unisex, with a slight lean feminine.
