Comments for AELLA:

Similar to the Saxon name, Aelle. There were several kings of this name during their dark ages' push into Britain.

Aella is such an interesting name! I really like it and I think it's an easy way to avoid the name Ella with out completely excluding it. Ella is becoming more popular as time goes on, so Aella is a great alternate form so to speak. Also it has a really uncommon meaning. I have never seen a name that meant "Whirlwind", which is how parenthood feels sometimes! hahahA! How ironic. I hope this name gets the credit it deserves one day! =)

What a nice name!

Pronounced AY-la (AY as in bay), like Kayla without the K. I like this a lot more then either Kayla or Ella. Variants include Ael (AYL, masculine), Aelle (AY-el), Aellia (AY-lee-ah), Aelliana (AY-lee-ah-na). Personally, I dislike Aellia and Aelliana because they sound a lot like "Alien."

This name is soo cute! It is so different, but has the look and sound of a beautiful classic name! I think the meaning is cute too!

In Greek mythology Heracles slew the Amazon Aella who was known for wielding a double-axe.

Also of Irish origin, meaning 'from Ireland'.

I whole-heartedly doubt that Aella had any Irish origins, much less "from Ireland", which, by the way, is "na hÉireann". There is no similarity between Aella and na hÉireann, or even the Anglo-Irish name Erin. Why do people make up Irish origins for every name? It's something I just can't understand. If you don't speak the language, don't be making up meanings.

It is a pretty name, but a little too out-there for me. I would be too worried my child would be teased if I named my child this.
