Allyiah is English in Origin.

Allyiah is a modern English spelling of Aaliyah/Aliyah, drawn from Arabic Aliyyah, the feminine form of Aliyy meaning "exalted, lofty, sublime," and paralleling the Hebrew aliyah, "ascent." The name has long been used in Arabic-speaking communities; in Jewish contexts, Aliyah denotes rising to read from the Torah and, more broadly, immigration to Israel, enriching the sense of elevation. In the late 20th century it spread widely across the English-speaking world, with a sharp rise in the 1990s and early 2000s influenced by the American R&B artist Aaliyah.

Spelling variants include Aaliyah, Aliyah, Alia, Aleah, Aleia, Alayah, and Alya; related short forms and nicknames are Ali, Allie, Lia, and Liyah. Allyiah preserves the same meaning - "exalted," "high," or "to ascend" - while blending the friendly Ally- element with the familiar -iyah ending.
