Jaleyah
Meaning of Jaleyah
In the mosaic of contemporary names, Jaleyah emerges with a lilting charm that suggests the gentle swirl of a Tuscan breeze through sunlit vineyards. This modern American coinage—melding the melodic prefix “Ja–” with the timeless Leah, itself rooted in Hebrew meaning “delicate” or “weary”—carries an air of both innovation and age-old grace. Pronounced juh-LAY-uh (/dʒəˈleɪə/), it evokes the first blush of dawn over Rome’s orange rooftops and the soft cadence of an aria drifting from a centuries-old piazza. First recorded on U.S. Social Security rolls in 1997, Jaleyah has held its place among the top 1,000 girls’ names ever since, peaking at No. 902 in 2011, and today it continues to sparkle with youthful promise, creative spirit and heartfelt warmth.
