Aliyah Name Meaning

Aliyah is derived from the Arabic name "Ali," which means "sublime, exalted." In Hebrew, to make an “aliyah” is to go to God, or more simply, “to go up, to ascend.” Aliyah is also a basic tenet of Zionist ideology and refers to the Jewish people's path to the Promised Land. This “aliyah” or return to the Holy Land has been a Jewish aspiration since the Babylonian exile more than 2,500 years ago. In English-speaking countries, the female name Aliyah has only been in use for a short time and appears to be isolated from the United States.

My name is Aliyah. I lov eit because I'm named after the'singer Aaliyah. People usually spell it with two A's like the'singer. The correct way to spell it is A-L-I-Y-A-H. I rarely meet other people with my name but if I hear other people say my name that I don't know I always say HUH! Who called my name❤️ Besides that I love my name.

My name is Aliyah and I didn't meet another Aliyah until my freshman year in high school. It is very unique despite never being able to find my name on souvenir!! I'm Italian so its kind of inter'sting that my name is so exotic. It is usually pronounced by othe's with the "i" that'sounds like the capital "I" and not like an "e".Love my name!!!

I named my now 4 yr old daughter Aaliah, we loved the traditional spelling but chose to be different, it is a beautiful name and she is a beautiful little girl.. I did look up both Hebrew and Muslim meanings i also had an Arabic friend who said it was an Arabic name 2.it was the Arabic princess's name. My youngest Daughters name is Nikyla (not nicola)said as it looks.. We made the name up though so is it right of us to have our own meaning❤️❤️ any thoughts❤️
