Orelia

A name with various meanings and possible origins, Orielle may appeal to those who like Ariel, Aurelia, Orla, and Oriana. As a Hebrew name, it is a variation of Oriel or Uriel, meaning "my light is God", while as an English name, it may derive from Auriel, likely inspired by the Roman Aureola, meaning "golden".
 
Alternatively, it could relate to the Old Germanic names Orieldis or Aurildis, meaning "fire-strife", or to the French oriole which again means "golden", and is also given to a species of birds. As such, the name has a bright, glowing image, regardless of which route you follow, associated with light and golden hues.
