Throughout the world, Hamoda (Hamoda 
) is a common principally masculine, but scarcely girly first name. The first name Hamoda is characteristic of Morocco, where it is quite a common primarily male, but very infrequently female name, Libya, where it is quite a common mostly boy's, but seldom feminine name, and Syria, where it is quite a rare predominantly boy's, but very infrequently female name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is the most numerous in Northern Africa, particularly Morocco, Egypt, and Algeria. Likewise, Hamoda is the last name as well as the forename.
