New mommy Halle spoke to Access Hollywood about the name saying:
"We didn't have a name picked out until just before we left the hospital," Halle told Nancy. "For us it was hard to name the most important person in our life until we met her."
And the meaning? Nahla means "honeybee" in Arabic however, Star reports that "Nahla" is an Arabic word that means "a drink of water," while Ariela is the "Lion Of God" in Hebrew.
Nahla takes the surname of her father, model Gabriel Aubry, as opposed to that of her world-famous mother.
It seems like we have to wait to know why the newly parents choose this name for their little baby!
Its a very pretty name no matter what it means. I am very happy for Halle.
