About Aminata
This elaboration of the Arabic amīn, meaning "trustworthy" or "to feel safe" was a fast riser in 2022, but has yet to crack the Top 1000. Latvian musical artist Aminata Savadogo's 2021 song "It's Written in the Heavens (Milky Way)" was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2022 Latvian Music Recording Awards, potentially bringing the name into the spotlight.
Pronounced ah-mee-NAH-tah.
As of October 2026, Aminata ranked #2441 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #1996 in 2015.
