Talia is a feminine given name meaning “girl/woman who recites the Quran often” in Arabic, Written "تَالِيَة" and "dew from God" in Hebrew and . Alternative spellings include: Taliah, Taaliah, Talya, Tahlia or Taylia. In Hebrew Talia is a combination of two separate words which, when combined, translate to dew of God. The word talia can be found in the Mishnah (Keilim 24:17), although its use as a name is modern. It is also attributed to the word meaning female "lamb" in Hebrew, as define by the "Even-Shoshan" dictionary. The Hebrew word for male lamb – "taLEH" (טלה) with the addition of the female suffix describing female animals "ya" (יה), as mentioned in the Mishnah (Minchot, 23;7).
The name Talia bears phonological similarities to names found in many other languages. The Assyrian community heavily used the name "T(h)alia," which, in Neo-Aramaic, means "boy." The Greek name Thalia (or Thalía or Thaleia (Greek: Θάλεια from θάλλειν "to bloom") dates back to antiquity and is relatively popular in a number of countries. However, pronunciation varies and in some cases the θ/t distinction of the original Greek is lost (e.g. Spanish pronunciation: [taˈli.a]). A similar-sounding name is also in use in Polynesian cultures.
