Halle-Berry-Original

She’s on top of the world, being the mother of a healthy newborn baby daughter. And now, Halle Berry has revealed her little one’s name - Nahla Ariela Aubry.

“Nahla is the Arabic word for ‘drink of water,’” Pamela Redmond Satran, co-author of The Baby Name Bible, told press. “Ariela is related to the Hebrew Ariel, which means ‘lion of god.’”

“Nahla is one of those names that is occasionally found among people of African or Arabic descent, but isn’t commonly used in any particular culture,” she adds.

As previously reported by Gossip Girls, Halle gave birth to her baby girl on Sunday. Nahla is the first child for the Oscar winning actress and her model boyfriend, Gabriel Aubry.
