What is the meaning of the name Chelluh ?

The baby name Chelluh is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced CHEL-uh (IPA: /ˈtʃɛl.ə/).

Chelluh is in Origin.

Chelluh is a modern given name with multiple plausible roots. Most commonly it is treated as a phonetic or stylistic variant of Chella/Chelle, ultimately linked to the South Indian endearment chellam, "beloved; precious," giving the name a tender meaning. In English-speaking contexts it can also arise as a nickname-based respelling from Michelle, Rochelle, or Richelle. Less commonly, its look evokes Hebrew Shelah (variously interpreted as "petition" or "drawn out"), and some parents cite the Moroccan heritage site Chellah as a place-name inspiration. Pronounced CHEL-uh.

Found primarily in late-20th and 21st-century records, Chelluh suits the trend for distinctive, vowel-soft endings. Usage is unisex but tilts feminine when tied to Michelle/Rochelle; in South Asian families it can be fully unisex. Variants and related forms include Chella, Chellah, Chelle, Chellu, Chellie, and Chel. The prevailing meaning across origins is "beloved/precious."
