Alma is from the Latin word almus meaning “nourishing, kind, propitious”. It also means “soul” in Spanish. In Hungarian, it means “apple”. Then, in Hebrew, it means “young woman”. It’s a name with a variety of meanings and a lovely sound.
To me, Alma is a rather cozy name. It makes me think of early mornings in late summer where the mist hangs in the air over the fields: warm, fresh, and new.
