Mahlah

In the Bible, Mahlah was one of five daughters of Zelophehad. The others were Noa, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. Noa is popular, Tirzah is sometimes used, and Mahlah has a much better chance of modern revival than Hoglah.

Many sources give the meaning of Mahlah as weak, sick, or diseased, not an appealing image, but others say it means dance.

Pronounced MAH-luh.

As of October 2026, Mahlah ranked #19369 in US births in 2008 SSA.
