"Variant of Jamila"
The name Jamela is commonly a female name from the "Arabic" origin.
Jamela is a Latin-alphabet spelling of the Arabic feminine given name Jamila, which is formed from the Arabic adjective jamīl, meaning beautiful. Arabic names written in Latin letters have no single fixed spelling, and Jamela appears alongside Jamila, Jameela and Gamila as renderings of the same name, so it carries no separate meaning of its own.
Jamila means "Beautiful".
The pronunciation of Jamela is juh-MEL-uh.
