Baila is a Yiddish name, a form of Beyle, that is usually explained as "beautiful", from the same root as the Italian bella. It is a traditional choice in Orthodox Jewish families, often passed down from a grandmother, and it coincides with the Spanish word baila, "she dances", which gives it a bright second association. Baila has never entered the US top 1000; it moved from number 1706 in 2015 to number 1421 in 2024 and stands at number 1467 in 2025.
