You're thinking of the Yiddish familiar diminutive for 'mother', meaning literally "little mama". Unless you're referring to the Jerusalem neighbourhood by that name. The word Mamillaprobably stems from the http://www.answers.com/topic/arabic-language?initiator=CANS: مأمن الله or ما من الله‎, meaning "that which comes from Gcd". The name possibly refers to an early church that existed there.
