What could my name possibly mean?
My name is not a name that is very traditional in America. My name is Alaylah and whenever I search for my name in any datbase I get no type of meaning. Though, When I search my name on Google and Facebook I get the profile of a small village named Alaylah in the Arabdial Province. I'm not too sure if that's how you spell that nor have I ever heard of it. I have found meanings of parts of my name like Layla -which is a variant of Leila- and both are said to be of Arabic origin and it's obvious my name is of Arabic orgin also- well, most likely. So, since there is a village with the same name as mine then there must be a reason the village is named Alaylah and hopefully that means there is a meaning too. So, please help me find the meaning of my name; Thank You.

Have you asked your parents where they found this name and why they chose it for you? That would be important information to have to help determine any possible etymology.

My father came up with my name. My parents didn't plan a name for me beforehand; he just mustered up something that he thought sounded beautiful. So there's really no meaning behind it; it's just something he thought he made up.
