Verdict
 
Amani is a unisex name of Arabic origin, meaning peace. It sits outside our verified ONS 2025 top ten; check the live table if rank is the test. Say it with your UK surname so forms and the playground both work. Then buy sleep kit, not a custom-print empire.
 
 Not for:  Skip this page if you wanted a legal naming ceremony, a religious ruling, or a due-date tracker. ONS owns the rankings. We own the shortlist.

## Which names sit near Amani?
 

These share gender and overlap on style or origin. They are a second look, not a ranking. Open the one that
            still works with your surname. Keep two or three, not twenty. Then leave the print aisle until sleep and the
            car seat are done.

## What should you buy after you shortlist Amani?
 

Sleep space and a legal car seat if you drive, then a few 0–3 month cotton sleepsuits and a gift that works at 3
        a.m. Skip nests, name-print blankets sold as safer-sleep, and a wardrobe of newborn-only knits. Official sleep
        advice stays free. Retailer hops below are labelled.
