Azalea is a kind of pink flower.-- irene27 3/24/2005
Azalea is the state wildflower from Georgia.-- Anonymous User 9/9/2005
Where I live, everyone pronounces the flower name a-ZAYL-ya. I've never heard the other pronunciation. [noted -ed]-- Silversliver 4/30/2006
"Azalea" could have a nameday on Palm Sunday. Palm Sunday (the Sunday before Easter) is the day of flowers and willows (the names of the other trees also have a nameday).-- iva_toneva 6/5/2006
I have a friend named Azalea and her name was pronounced a-ZAH-lee-a.-- Anonymous User 8/5/2006
Do you live in Georgia too, because we pronounce it a-ZAYL-a.-- czechcrazy 9/23/2006
I like this name; it's a pretty and underused flower name, and it looks and sounds somewhat exotic. I always pronounce it 'Ah-zay-lee-ah' and have only heard it pronounced this way (I live in Indiana.)-- Iridosmine 10/17/2006
I think this is a cool name!-- flipflop1215 1/24/2007
Azalea is one of those rare yet beautiful names you can have. I love this name.-- 7up 2/20/2007
I used to think it was pronounced "AH-zuh-LEE-uh"!-- Dessa 4/10/2007
This name reminds me of the most beautiful girl in the world. It's just absolutely beautiful. I will surely use this name in the future.-- Dessa 4/10/2007
The French form of this name is either Azélie or Zélie.-- mariej2 6/12/2007
The name Azalea is feminine and elegant.-- punk_godess 7/14/2007
Nice name, can't think of rhymes bullies at school could use so that's a bonus.-- lowcal historyan 11/10/2007
The meaning really is beautiful if you look at it right. Okay I know it means dry but there was a reason for why they called it that. It is a flowering shrub that grows in dry soil. If you're struggling when your daughter is born then her name can mean that she can grow and blossom even when there seems to be hard times around.-- Cyneburga 5/8/2008
I know of someone who named their daughter Azalea (pronounced A-ZAY-lea) and nicknamed her "Zae" for short. Very cute, and very pretty.-- Anonymous User 7/2/2008
I like this name, I think it's pretty and a change from Rose for once. Azaleas are pretty pink flowers although they only last for a few weeks. I've always hear it pronounced A-Zayl-lee-uh, which is quite pretty. If Azula from Avatar The Last Airbender had a twin sister who was good, this would be her name, I think.-- _0TophasNails_1 12/9/2008
I thought Azalea was a modern name, but I've just found that between 1837 and 1915 (haven't checked later) 48 babies were given this name, either as a first name or middle name, in England.
The earliest was Azalea Platts, born in Sheffield in 1866.
The unluckiest was Gladiolus Azalea Clarke, born in Leicester in 1891. (I found four others in the same time period with the Gladiolus name: Gladiolus Ermine Blake, Olive Gladiolus Corps, Gladiolus Ivy Shearman, and poor Gladiolus Gooch.)-- Jonquil 4/11/2009
If I had to choose a flower name it would be between Amaryllis and Azalea. I am leaning towards Azalea because it is unique, sounds more feminine, and the flower isn't common.-- Milena Scialfa 10/18/2009
I don't know if Azalea is used as a given name in Spanish- or Italian-speaking countries; nevertheless the flower Azalea is pronounced "ah-sah-LAY-ah" in Spanish and "ah-tsah-LAY-ah" in Italian.
From the internet: The Azalea flower symbolizes temperance, fragility, passion and, in China, womanhood; it also means "take care of yourself for me". It is a member of the rhododendron (Greek: "rose tree") family.-- Anonymous User 4/1/2011
Definitely not the best name out there. The sound isn't very pleasing, and to be honest, I'm not too crazy about the flower.-- Black_X 7/28/2011
This is such a beautiful name! Too bad the meaning isn't so great. Oh well, that wouldn't stop me from using it.-- willarose93 1/26/2012
I looked into the meaning, and the meaning is 'dry' because it flourishes in dry soil, which actually is very strong of the flower, so I like the meaning now.-- willarose93 1/26/2012
LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!!!-- KaylaKool 4/8/2012
