Taleah
Meaning of Taleah
Taleah tumbles off the lips like a sun-warmed maraca, bright and rhythmic, yet she carries the quiet poetry of dawn. Most name scholars trace her sparkle to Hebrew Talia—“dew from God”—but Latin lovers can’t resist pointing out that talea means “young shoot,” the tender stem a gardener snips to start new life. Blend those two images and you get a little girl who is both morning mist and budding blossom, a fresh heartbeat in the garden of names. Taleah has been sashaying through U.S. birth records since the early ’70s, rarely climbing higher than the 800s, which means she’s familiar enough to feel cozy yet rare enough to turn heads at roll call. Pronounced tuh-LEE-uh, she sounds like a lyrical command to dance, and parents who choose her often mention grace, renewal, and a hint of tropical flair. If you’re looking for a name that feels like sunrise drizzled over a flamenco guitar, Taleah is already stepping onto your stage.
