Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry have chosen the name Nahla Ariela Aubry for their newborn daughter, according to US Magazine.
The name has a unique origin and a Disney connection. Pamela Redmond Satran, co-author of The Baby Name Bible and Cool Names for Babies explains that Nahla is not commonly used in any specific culture but can be found among people of African or Arabic descent.
The name Nala from Disney’s The Lion King adds an African flavor to Nahla’s meaning. Additionally, Ariela has a Disney connection through Ariel in The Little Mermaid.
Nahla Ariela Aubry was born at 10:17am on Sunday, weighing 7lb 4 oz.
