The origins of the name Amalia have often been associated with those of [[Emilia (given name)|Emilia]] and [[Emily (given name)|Emily]], both of which in fact originate from the [[Roman naming conventions#Nomen|Latin nomen]] [[Aemilia (gens)|Aemilia]], or with [[Amalthea (mythology)|Amalthea]], which originated from the Greek name "tender goddess". In Greece, the name is celebrated on 10 July in honour of Saint Amalia.
 
Amalia has several variants, including [[Amelia (given name)|Amelia]] in English, Amélia in Spanish, [[Amélie (given name)|Amélie]] in French, [[Amalie (given name)|Amalie]] in German, Amálie in Czech, and [[Amalka (given name)|Amalka]], a diminutive form of the name used in [[Slavic languages]].<ref>{{cite book|last=Beider|first=Alexander|title=Handbook of Ashkenazic Given Names and Their Variants|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=EEYrAQAAIAAJ|year=2009|publisher=Avotaynu|isbn=978-1-886223-43-1}}</ref>
 
In Arabic, it comes from the same word as Hebrew, Amal, which also means "work", or from the words Amal/Amel, Amali (أمالي) or Amalia (اماليا), all meaning "hope".{{Citation needed|date=March 2024}}
