History & Origin

Alonah comes from Alona, a Hebrew name meaning 'oak tree', from 'alon', and used in Israel as the feminine of Alon. It also brushes against Alana and Ilona in sound. The added -h gives Alonah a slightly ornate finish while keeping the sturdy 'oak' image at its root.

It was never common, reaching only a couple dozen girls a year at its high near 2009. Because its use is fairly recent, many bearers are still young. It appears in small numbers, drawn on for its meaning and gentle sound rather than as part of a broad trend.

Did you know? Alonah rides the modern taste for -ah endings on flowing girls' names, sitting near Alana, Ilona and the Hebrew Alona.
