Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025
Skylah: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 2016.
Skylah is a modern, feminine elaboration of the classic English name Sky, which itself derives from the Old Norse "ský," meaning "cloud." As a name, it evokes a sense of open, airy freedom and the natural world. While there is no famous bearer of the specific spelling Skylah, the related and more traditional form Skyla has been used in popular culture, such as for the character Skyla in Pokémon. The name shares its root with the picturesque Isle of Skye in Scotland, whose name is also thought to come from the Norse word for cloud. A fresh and contemporary choice, Skylah offers a softer, more lyrical alternative to the popular Skylar, adding a graceful, modern twist to a nature-inspired classic.
