I think it's for all languages, if the name is not very similiar or the same to the original word or meaning it's hard for someone to make a connection. So yeah, i agree

Is it not just feminine of Herman? Nothing comes up on Wiktionary.

From what i gather herman is germanic for "army/warrior man" and herma is a feminine version. Both derived from the greek god, Hermes.

In my family (and some friends families too) sometimes we came up with a name and think about the meaning of that meaning too, idk how much common is it tbh.

I think it really depend on the culture
