What is the meaning of the name Perlla ?

The baby name Perlla is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈper.la/ (Spanish/Italian) or /ˈpɛr.lə/ (English) — "PER-lah".

Perlla is Latin in Origin.

Perlla is a modern elaboration of Perla, a Romance given name ultimately from Latin perla, “pearl.” Through Italian and Spanish it aligns with Portuguese pérola (“pearl”), placing Perlla within the global pearl-name family alongside Margaret/Margarita from Greek margarites. The core meaning is “pearl,” evoking rarity, purity, and the sea.

Usage of Perla dates to medieval and early modern Europe and also appears in Ashkenazi Jewish communities as Perl/Perel/Perla. The double‑L spelling Perlla is a recent, mostly Brazilian and Latin‑American variant, reflecting contemporary creative orthography and boosted in visibility by Brazilian pop singer Perlla. Related forms and cognates include Perla (Spanish/Italian), Pérola or Perola (Portuguese), Pearl (English), Perle (French), Perła/Perla (Polish), and Yiddish Perl/Perel. Perlla remains rare but distinctive, offering a sleek update to a classic gem name.
