Quamayne is an uncommon, distinctive first name of African American origin. It was created by author Zane for one of her characters and has since been adopted as a unique choice for newborns. The name Quamayne is believed to be derived from two Swahili words: 'quame', meaning 'peaceful', and 'ai', referring to the concept of love or beloved ones. Therefore, it can be interpreted as promoting harmony among loved ones.
Quamayne saw a consistent number of babies named each year from 1995 to 1996, with exactly five newborns receiving this name both years combined.
