Around the world, Anima (Anima 
, Ame 
, Alm 
) is a widespread predominantly feminine, but very seldom male forename. The forename Anima is characteristic of India, where it is quite a common female name, Botswana, where it is quite a common epicene name, and Fiji, where it is quite a common male name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is the most numerous in India, Ethiopia, and Tanzania. Much less frequently, Anima is the last name as well as the forename.
