What is the meaning of the name Ariellah ?

The baby name Ariellah is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced ah-ree-EL-uh (IPA: /ɑːriˈɛlə/).

Ariellah is Hebrew in Origin.

Ariellah is a modern feminine elaboration of Hebrew Ariel (אריאל), composed of ’ari, “lion,” and El, “God,” yielding the meaning “lion of God”; in prophetic Hebrew it can also signify “altar/hearth of God” and serves as a poetic epithet for Jerusalem (Isaiah 29). The -ah ending aligns it with Biblical-style feminine forms and distinguishes it from Ariella and French-influenced Arielle.

Within Jewish tradition Ariel has long been a male/unisex name, while English-speaking usage broadened after Shakespeare’s The Tempest popularized Ariel as an airy spirit. Feminine variants gained ground in the late 20th century; Ariellah remains rarer than Ariella or Arielle but appeals to parents seeking a Hebrew-rooted, lyrical form. Related spellings include Ariela, Arielah, and Arella; short forms span Ari, Aria, Elle, and Ella. Overall sense: “God’s lion/lioness,” connoting courage and divine protection.
