The word "Yemen" is also Georgian. It is easy to prove. In Georgian, "Yemen" is "Iamaneti" (Chanturia dictionary). "Iamani" is a precious agate stone. Morphologically, the word is divided into "iam" (root) + "-ani" (suffix).
We find the root "iam" in the masdar "iameba", which is translated as "to please", "to give pleasure". It is clear that a woman cannot imagine a greater pleasure than to receive a precious stone as a gift. Thus, "iamani" turns into simply "pleasing". A purely Georgian word.
"Since ancient times, noble stones mined in Yemen have been especially valuable in the East. Yemeni agate has always been especially famous".
By the way, the English "yummy" might also come from the Georgian "iameba".
