Orfhlaith is a traditional feminine Irish name with ancient Gaelic origins, pronounced approximately as 'OR-la' or 'OR-lah.' It derives from the Gaelic elements 'or' meaning 'gold' and 'flaith' meaning 'princess' or 'sovereignty,' thus translating to 'golden princess' or 'golden lady.' This name dates back to medieval Ireland and was borne by several noble women in Irish history. While the original spelling Orfhlaith remains rare outside Ireland, its modernized form Orla has gained more international recognition. The name connects deeply to Irish heritage and Celtic traditions. Despite its challenging spelling for non-Irish speakers, it carries a sense of historical dignity and cultural richness that appeals to those with Irish ancestry or appreciation for Celtic heritage.
