History & Origin

Start with Ayla, read as 'oak tree' in Hebrew or 'moonlight' in Turkish, then extend it with -ana. Those meanings come from Ayla; the extension is a stylistic flourish, making Aylana a modern elaboration rather than an old name.

Rare on record, with a smooth three-beat flow.

Did you know? Ayla genuinely means 'oak tree' (Hebrew) and 'moonlight' (Turkish). Aylana keeps both echoes and adds an elegant tail for extra music.
