Nualla

Spelled with two -l's instead of one, the feminine name Nualla is lovely and lyrical. It's a variant of Nuala, a shortened form of the Irish title Fionnuala, which was borne by one of the mythical children of Lir. Deriving from the elements finn and gúala, Nualla means "white shoulder" or "fair shoulder," likely describing someone with blonde hair. Though it might take some time to discover the exact color of your little one's locks, you'll enjoy every moment of guessing and predicting with your loved ones! Perhaps Nualla will simply remind you of your Irish roots, and the ways you'll help your tiny tot feel connected to them.
