  4. Aliyah is actually her second name, her first is Naledi then Aliyah, Naledi means Star and Aliyah means Exalted, so she’s my little Exalted Star, she’s my little shinning Star and she proves that everyday, she came at a time I thought depression would rear it’s ugly little head again which I honestly felt coming but then came out little princess and changed my entire life including my perspective of life.

  5. Her dad thought of this name ..I gave her a middle name of Reina which means queen

  6. We chose this name because of its meaning in both Arabic and Hebrew. It means exalted and refers to the journey of going up to worship God. We also don’t live in America and we needed a name that made sense and was pronounceable in all 3 cultures we live in. We love this name! She has a couple nicknames from friends and brothers, A-lili and Aloosh.

  7. I love it because its prophetic. Aliyah means to ascend..to go up.
    Jews making their way back to the Holy land is called Aliyah ??
    I love the land of the Bible(not that I’ve ever been there) but I do pray for the peace of Jerusalem…and that Gods people would accept Jesus as their messiah ??
