[Facts] Aya = Aja in German (hope it helps)

I did look up "Aja" in the German wikipedia. There were two men mentioned in the bible with that name.

son of Zibon (1. Mo 36, 24)
father of Rizpa and father in law of King Saul (2. Sam 3, 7)

I am sure that I read the name Aja in a list of saints. The meaning of the name was "care taker" or "educator".

This name is spelled Ajah and Aiah in the King James Bible. I looked it up in Strong's Hebrew Dictionary:

-----------------------
345. 'Ayah ah-yaw'
the same as 344; Ajah, the name of two Israelites:--Aiah, Ajah.

See Hebrew 344
-----------------------
344. 'ayah ah-yaw'
perhaps from 337; the screamer, i.e. a hawk:--kite, vulture.

See Hebrew 337
-----------------------

That goes along with what Andy ;—) wrote.
