Reyla is Spanish in Origin.
Reyla is a feminine name with layered origins. In Ashkenazi Jewish usage, Reyla/Reila appears in 19th–20th-century records as a Yiddish diminutive, most commonly linked to Rachel (Hebrew Raḥel, “ewe”) and, in some families, associated with Raizel/Reisel, the Yiddish form of “rose.” The -la ending is a typical affectionate Yiddish suffix, yielding a gentle, intimate tone.
In contemporary English- and Spanish-influenced contexts, Reyla is also interpreted as a modern blend - Rey (“king” in Spanish, used as a given name) + Layla/Leila (“night”) - conveying a chic “royal” feel. Usage has risen modestly in the 2010s, buoyed by the popularity of Rey in Star Wars and the broader -ayla/-eyla sound trend. Variants and spellings include Rayla, Raila, Reylah, Raela, Reila, and Raylah; related names are Rachel, Raizel, Rey, and Reina. Overall meanings proposed range from “ewe; gentle one” to “rose” to “royal/night.”
