Amanda was used by the Romans as a feminine form of the name Amandus. It comes from the Latin word amanda meaning "lovable, worthy of love." It was not used in English until the 17th century when it was discovered by writers and used as a character name. It became frequently used as a given name for babies in the late 1800s.
