Dyami (pronounced dee-AH-mee) is widely reported in baby-name references as a Native American–derived name meaning “eagle.” Clear documentation linking it to a specific Indigenous language is scarce, though attributions to Hopi or Cheyenne circulate. In practice, Dyami functions as a modern American given name inspired by Indigenous imagery of the eagle - an emblem of strength, vision, and freedom - rather than a securely attested borrowing from one tribe’s lexicon.

In U.S. usage, Dyami emerges in the late 20th century and remains rare, never entering the Social Security Top 1000. It is used across communities and can be treated as unisex, though it appears more often for boys. Variants and spellings include Diyami, Diami, Dyamie, and D’Yami; related “eagle” names in other languages include Aquila (Latin) and Adler (German). The prevailing meaning attached to Dyami is “eagle,” with connotations of keen perception and soaring independence.
