Name Meaning
Of Arabic origin, now fairly common in the English-speaking world, having been used as a name for an oriental beauty both by Byron , in The Giaour ( 1813 ) and Don Juan ( 1819–24 ), and by Lord Lytton for the heroine of his novel Leila ( 1838 ). In Arabic it means ‘night’, apparently alluding to a dark complexion.
