Lala

US Popularity Rank: 16756

Origin: Armenian

Meaning: Tulip

Sweet, whimsical, and utterly unique, Lala is a girl's name of Slavic origin, meaning "tulip." If you've been looking for a flowery name with an edge, you may have finally found your match. Not to be confused with Laa-Laa of the Teletubbies—although then again, why not?—Lala was quite common during the turn of the 20th century in India and Armenia. Now, you may think of La La Anthony and Lala Kent, both known for their style, talent, and work in film and television. And let's not forget the jazzy musical film, La La Land, starring Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling.
