Jemaal
Jemaal Origin and Meaning
Jemaal is a masculine name that appears to be a spelling variation of Jamal, which has Arabic origins meaning 'beauty' or 'handsome.' The alternative spelling with 'e' instead of 'a' and the doubled 'a' creates a distinctive orthographic representation while maintaining the same general pronunciation. In Arabic naming traditions, Jamal (جمال) has been used for centuries and refers to inner and outer beauty. The name began appearing in American naming records in the mid-20th century, with various spelling variations emerging as the name gained wider recognition. Jemaal represents a less common spelling variant compared to Jamal. Usage data suggests the name saw modest popularity during the 1970s through 1990s but remains relatively uncommon in contemporary naming practices while still being recognized and used.
