Diala

Meaning of Diala

Diala, an Arabic feminine name pronounced DEE-uh-lah (/diː.ə.lɑː/), traces its heritage to terms evoking the flow of water or the act of drawing from a well, suggesting both clarity and resilience. In the United States, it has surfaced intermittently among the top 1,000 names for girls over the past three decades—peaking at rank 918 in 2019 and registering six newborns in 2024—reflecting an appeal to parents who seek a name that marries cultural depth with distinctive subtlety. Its crisp three-syllable structure offers an elegant yet accessible sound, and with such limited usage—just half a dozen babies in 2024—it dryly guarantees a measure of exclusivity in contemporary naming trends. Though it remains off the beaten path, Diala’s steady foothold hints at a quietly growing interest in names that are both meaningful and memorably uncommon.
