Meaning not yet researched.
We publish a meaning only with a cited source and a confidence label, and never generate one. Meanings are being researched for the most common names first.
Wikidata records this spelling as a given name in Italian and Polish. That is where the name is used, not necessarily where it comes from.
Rare spellings summarised here: Romana (1,739), Rema (1,217), Rohma (5).
Numbers are all-time US births. Links come from Wikidata’s “said to be the same as” (P460, CC0) and our spelling rule: at most two letters different, with the same sound pattern.
No nicknames listed for Roma in the open dataset we use.
