Drema
Meaning of Drema
Drema, an English feminine given name pronounced DRAY-muh (/dreɪˈmə/), represents a morphological derivation in which the lexical root “dream” is combined with a feminine -a suffix, thereby signifying aspirations, imaginative capacity and future-oriented intent. Its formation aligns with Anglo-American naming conventions that favor semantically transparent constructions, and it is valued for both its structural economy and its connotations of visionary inclination. Analysis of West Virginia birth data from 1930 through 1976 reveals that Drema sustained a modest yet discernible presence in the regional onomastic corpus: initial annual occurrences in the single digits gave way to a mid-century apex of 63–73 registrations—peaking at rank 55 in 1959—before a gradual diminution into the mid-1970s. These quantitative trends underscore the name’s episodic regional appeal during the mid-20th century and suggest that, despite its subsequent decline in frequency, Drema retains a distinctive profile for those seeking a name that combines technical clarity with evocative, aspirational resonance.
