The Spanish turned the Arawak Indian word for the island "Xaymaca" into "Jamaica". It has been known by that name since about 1500. To pronounce the name of the island in Arawak one would say "ZHAY-ma-ka" .
The name of the song is derived from a play on the words "Jamaica" and "Did you make her", based on an old joke ("My wife's gone to the West Indies." "Jamaica?" "No, she went of her own accord.") Happy to help.
