What is the meaning of the name Joellah ?

The baby name Joellah is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced jo-EL-uh (IPA: /dʒoʊˈɛlə/).

Joellah is Hebrew in Origin.

Joellah is a modern feminine elaboration of the Hebrew name Joel (Yo’el), meaning “Yahweh is God” or “the Lord is God.” It blends the biblical root with a lyrical -ah ending common in Hebrew-influenced and English naming, and stands alongside the French feminine form Joëlle and the English Joella. Pronounced joh-EL-uh or joh-ELL-ah, it preserves the theophoric statement at the heart of Joel while giving it a softer cadence.

Usage traces back to the enduring biblical presence of Joel, one of the Twelve Minor Prophets. Feminine forms gained visibility in the 19th and especially mid‑20th centuries (notably Joëlle in France), and Joellah appears as a rare contemporary variant fashioned by doubling the l and adding -ah. Related forms include Joelle, Joella, Joëlle, and the masculine Joel/Yoel. Nicknames and diminutives include Jo, Joe, Ella, and Ellie, offering both traditional and modern styling options.
