Valla, of Latin origin, is a unisex given name that translates to 'strength' or 'power'. It is predominantly used as a girl's name but can also be found among boys. In Italian, Valla is traditionally associated with the feminine form of the adjective 'valente', meaning valiant or brave. The name has been popularized by several notable figures throughout history, such as the Italian historian and lawyer Lorenzo Valla, born in the 15th century. However, it remains relatively uncommon compared to other names with similar meanings like Valentina or Valeria.
"The name Valla experienced peaks of popularity during specific periods, with years like 1918 and 1950 seeing the highest number of births (10 each). However, it's notable that there was a significant gap from 1967 to 2023 before another birth occurred in 2023."
