Beaulah

Beaulah is a feminine name representing a variant spelling of Beulah, which has Hebrew origins meaning 'married' or 'bride.' This name appears in the Bible (Isaiah 62:4) where it symbolizes the restoration of Jerusalem and its rejoining with God. The alternative spelling with an added 'a' gives the name a slightly more elaborate, Southern feel. Beaulah experienced its greatest popularity in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly in rural communities. While it declined in usage after the 1930s, it maintains an air of vintage charm and nostalgic appeal. The name evokes images of grace and traditional femininity, often associated with the American South and its literary traditions.

Pronounced BOO-luh.
