About the name Halle

Halle owes its American profile almost entirely to a Cleveland department store, after which one very famous actress was named. The spelling keeps it distinct from the sea of Haileys while sounding identical for the first half-second.

Halle is a girl name of Old Norse origin, pronounced HAL-ee. On the NameRarity scale it scores 81 out of 100, which places it in the very rare band — a genuinely uncommon pick — most people have never met anyone with this name. Its strongest period was the 1990s.
