Halle Berry and beau Gabriel Aubry have just released the name of their newborn daughter.
Drum roll please…………………………………Nahla Ariela Aubry!!!!!! (No, I am not dyslexic.)
Nahla is an Arabic expression meaning “to drink water” while Ariela is the Lion Of God in Hebrew.
How…zen!

umm like Lion King “nahla” ??
stupid names…
you spelt dyslexic wrong….sorry.
^you spelled “spelled” wrong
I don’t think Nahla is an Arabic word or phrase, at all!
Are you sure?
thats exaclty what I was thinking ANON, isnt that the girl lion from Lion King? Simbas girlfriend? Well it still beats Apple and Coco….
How ridiculous.
Yes thats the name from the lion king. Love love it!
actually it was “nala” for the lion king. but whatev close enough!
geez louise…dont these parents realize that actual kids have to live with the names they are giving…they should also just pin a sign on them saying Kick Me
I had forgotten that Nala was from Lion King (and it’s all the same with an H or not because the H is silent). As for Ariela– Little Mermaid anyone? I mean, take off the A, and that’s what you got. Halle Barry is two letters away from a Disney movie fest inspired baby name.
an arab name is this suppose to make muslims like us.
^us or US? Never mind.
Catamaran??? As Anonymous pointed out - not only did you mispelled “spelled”, but “dyslexic” is correct.
omg!!!! LION KINGGG!!!!!!!!!
Who cares? It’s THEIR baby. Who cares that the name came from Lion King as if Disney created the name. We have no idea what that name means to them so we have no right to judge what they decided to name THEIR baby.
too many “ah” sounds in that name. throw the girl a consonant!
Anyone else think she looks a bit like Janet Jackson here?
Disappointing choice
Really, WTF?
Esp. Ariela. Sounds like areola to me…
I like her name choice, it’s different but not over the top.
I think the name is really pretty! It does remind me of the Lion King though. Anyone else notice how Nahla is similar to Halle and Ariela is similar to Gabriel. Interesting.
I’m with sad but true–too many “a” sounds when you say them together. It sounds like gargling, yodeling, or yawning. Or hey–like the classic “Olly Olly Oxen Free!” from the game tag.
nahla means BEE is arabic, and i’m sure of that i’m arabic !!!
Shut up all you hatters, who gives a shit what yous think about Nahla’s name you’s dont know her!!! Loosers!! What do you’s think about Oprah name ay?? Well who cares she is still a multi millionaire cause she talks about things that are relavent. So again dont trash Nahla’s name or her parents for naming her because you’s don’t know why they named her Nahla or even what it means nor do you’s know them So get over yourselves!! Yous have no right to judge them!!!
