Origin: Sanskrit

Meaning: Precious stone

Upala is a feminine name meaning “precious stone” in Sanskrit. There is reason to believe that the precious stone could, in fact, be a multi-colored stone called opal. Believed to be a symbol of love, hope, and luck, opal was even valued above all other gems at one point in time. So Upala is just as much a name as a talisman for your precious child. And since opal is the designated birthstone for the month of October, Upala is well-suited for an October baby!
