Modern invention, from Hebrew and Arabic
"God's ascent; lofty, exalted"

Jaleah Origin and Meaning

The name Jaleah is a girl's name meaning "God's ascent; lofty, exalted".

Jaleah is a less popular spelling of Jaliyah, which is likely a variation of the popular Aliyah. From Hebrew, the name Aliyah means "ascent" while the Ja- beginning often connotes God, so the meaning might be "God's ascent." As an Arabic name, Aliyah means "lofty" or "exalted" while Ja- is a popular prefix used in the African American community, so Jaliyah - or Jaleah might be a twist on a more popular choice, or a way to honor an Aliyah.
