Meaning of the name הלליה

It is a name that expresses the profound connection between a person and their Creator, and the ability to see the good and beauty in the world and give thanks for them. The name Halelya carries a particularly poetic and musical character. It evokes the Hallel psalms recited on festivals and joyous occasions, and the Levitical songs that echoed in the Temple.
