You probably know this, but Alma means “soul” in Portuguese.
Is this why you picked the name? I like it. I went with Ada myself (after Lovelace - wife only found-out why years later).

Uzbek and Turkish are also pretty close.
ALMA is also a radio telescope in Chile (the Atacama Large Millimeter Array), which is somewhat closer afield to what I do.
But we ended up not using it.
