It is most likely a variant of Azalea. Good luck to your sister in law!

First off, where did she first hear this name? What was the ethnicity of the bearer (if there is one)? Did she create this name on her own?
These questions will help us figure out where this name came from.Based on sound and spelling, I would assume that it was a variant of the flower name Azalea, which according to this site is ultimately derived from the Greek azaleos, meaning "dry".
