      The name Jaheim originated in America and is a combination of two Arabic names, Jamil and Rahim. The name Jamil means beautiful or handsome in Arabic, while Rahim means compassionate or merciful. The merging of these names creates Jaheim, which can be interpreted as beautifully compassionate or handsomely merciful.

It gained popularity in the late 20th century, particularly among parents seeking unique and meaningful names for their children.
