Vala?

Looking for thoughts on the name [name_f]Vala[/name_f] (VAH-la, rhyming with [name_f]Nala[/name_f])? I personally love how simple yet sophisticated it sounds, but I’m curious to know what other people’s opinions are. Middle name suggestions would be greatly appreciated as well!

I have to agree, simple yet sophisticated is a good way to describe this name. I like it!

I’ll see if I can come up with some first/middle combos.

It has a nice ring to it. For some reason it feels unfinished, but not in a bad way. I think it’s a lovely little name.

I think it’s lovely. Short and sweet, but with something more underneath. The meaning’s a little odd, but I really like it.

[name_f]Vala[/name_f] itself is nice and unexpected, but I will say my brain read “vela” first, which means candle in Spanish.
