Someone else on the board recently taught me that it is an animal that is similar to a deer and native of Africa.
Sorry, I forgot who said that, or what thread, but do a search on it and you'll find the answer.
I pronounce it Kay-ma.

Betty always pronounced it KAAYMAH.

The antelope connection is correct....she had the face of an antelope on the deck of her race boat.

We have a Betty Cook photo collection under the World Champions section on the site.

Ok so is it an animal, location, or state of mind? Personally I always thought it was an acronym for something?

Pantera got it......A "KAAMA" is an animal that is part of the Hartabeast (spelling?) family---it's kind of like an African deer of sorts.

I remember calling the KAAMA folk's out in California back in the early 1980's and asked John Conners (I think that was his name) how you pronounced "KAAMA"....he laughed and replied; "Heh, you can call it "BOB" if it will make it any easier."

Hmmm....now let's see----would you pronounce "BOB" like "BOAB" or........:D :D :D
