Origin

The name Jazalayah appears to be a modern, creative variation likely inspired by the name Jala or Jalayah, which have roots in different cultures. The component 'Jaz' may derive from the common nickname or diminutive form inspired by names like Jasmine or Jessica.

This combination suggests a contemporary, possibly multicultural origin, popular among Australian families embracing diverse heritages.

In the Australian context, it might symbolise beauty, serenity, and a connection to natural or cultural diversity.
