Valla is a girl's name of disputed origin with several meanings attached. The two primary sources of the root of Valla point to Germany and Norway. In Old German, the name spawned from Vala, a girl's name meaning "singled out." Up in Norway and, to a lesser extent, Sweden, Valla began as a habitational name for several places and farmsteads. It comes from the Old Norse vǫllr, meaning "field" or "meadow." Your little one can be in touch with Mother Nature or singled out for their achievements.
