() in Aramaic, () in Hebrew, () or () in Arabic, and () in Syriac.
In Hebrew and Arabic, the word Leila or Laila means "night", "dark" and the name is often given to girls born during the night, signifying "daughter of the night".
The story of ''Qays and Layla'' or ''Layla and Majnun'' is based on the romantic poems of Qais Ibn Al-Mulawwah () in 7th century Arabia, who was nicknamed Majnoon Layla (), Arabic for "madly in love with Layla", referring to his cousin Layla Al-Amiriah (). His poems are considered the paragon of unrequited chaste love. They later became a popular romance in medieval Iran, and use of the name spread accordingly. The name gained popularity further afield in the Persianate world, amongst Turkic peoples and in the Balkans and India.
In the Nordic countries, Laila or Lajla is derived from the Sami name ''Láilá'', the Sami variant of Helga which means "holy". Provided by Wikipedia
