Meaning & Story

From the Sanskrit 'kama' meaning love, desire, or the god of love in Hindu mythology; Kama is also associated with pleasure and emotional fulfillment in Buddhist philosophy.

Kama carries the ancient Sanskrit concept of love and desire — it's the name of Kamadeva, the Hindu god of love, making it a deeply meaningful choice for a pet who is the object of your greatest affection. Short and sweet, with a warmth that radiates from every letter, Kama suits a dog or cat who embodies pure, uncomplicated love. It's also cross-cultural enough to resonate in multiple traditions, from Sanskrit texts to Swahili (where 'kama' means 'like' or 'as').
