Alma 2 is a feminine given name of Hebrew origin, meaning "young woman". It is distinct from the Arabic name Alma (meaning "apple") and the Latin Alma (meaning "nourishing"). While the name appears in the Book of Mormon as a male figure, the feminine form has gained popularity in modern times, particularly in Israel and among Jewish communities. The name carries connotations of youth and vitality. Notable bearers include Israeli actress Alma Zack. Its rise in usage reflects a broader trend of reviving biblical and Hebraic names. Related names include Alma and Almah.
