Poema Origin and Meaning

The name Poema is a girl's name meaning "poem; pearl of the deep seas, pure, clean pearl".

Poema is a a multicultural word name, working as an elaborate form of Poem in English, but as a direct word name in Spanish, Portuguese, and more. In an English speaking context, this may make it feel lean more "name-y", blending the sounds of classic Emma with the playful 'Poe' sound.

Poema can also be considered a Tahitian name, combining poe meaning "pearl" and ma meaning "clear, clean, pure, which might be interpreted as either "pure pearl" or more figuratively, "pearl of the deep seas".

In Dutch, however, this is the word for puma, as in the big cat, and pronounced "poo-muh".
