Meaning of Ailah
Ailah derives from Arabic roots, where it carries the meaning “noble” or “exalted,” and also echoes the Gaelic Aila, associated with light and brightness. Pronounced AY-luh in English and eye-LAH in Arabic, its two-syllable structure offers clear, melodic appeal across languages. In the United States, Ailah first entered the Social Security Administration’s top 1,000 in 2005 and has since hovered around the 900th rank—36 newborns received the name in 2024—reflecting steady yet selective use. Its open vowel ending and rhythmic flow have found particular favor in Latin American communities, where parents appreciate its blend of contemporary style and cultural resonance. As a female name, Ailah combines modern freshness with historical depth, presenting a concise, versatile choice for families seeking both meaning and musicality.
