Azalaya

Meaning of Azalaya

Azalaya is a modern floral-inspired name that feels like a burst of spring on the tongue: pronounced uh-ZAY-luh-yuh, it borrows its lyrical charm from the azalea flower and adds a playful “-ya” flourish. Though still under the radar, Azalaya quietly captivates a handful of American parents each year—with eight newborns in 2024 alone—nestling around the lower end of the top thousand but gathering momentum like early buds in spring. Its blend of botanical grace and contemporary flair makes it perfect for a little girl destined to stand out: bright, spirited, and ever-blooming. For families seeking a name that’s both warm and whimsical, Azalaya feels like a promise of beauty yet to unfurl.
