Chala is a feminine name with diverse cultural origins. In Hebrew, it refers to a traditional bread (challah) used in Jewish ceremonies, symbolizing sustenance and blessing. In some African languages, particularly in Ethiopia, Chala can mean "the light of the home" or "one who brings light." The name has a gentle, melodic quality with its simple two-syllable structure. While uncommon in Western countries, it has established usage in parts of Africa, Israel, and among some Jewish communities. Chala's cross-cultural significance and positive associations with light and nourishment make it meaningful while remaining distinctive. Its simplicity makes it easy to pronounce across different languages, though its spelling may occasionally be confused with similar names like Chaya or Kayla.
