Lalla_(title)

Amazigh word meaning "Lady" or "Miss"

cultureKind2026-01-23UpdatedWikipediaSource

Lalla is an honorific title meaning 'lady', 'my lady', 'miss' or 'mrs', used in the Maghreb to politely address or refer to any woman. In Morocco, if a woman is known to the speaker, they would address her as 'Lalla' followed by her personal or family name. In Mauritania, Lalla is often used on its own as a first name for women. It is also sometimes used with another noun to form a compound name, such as in the names Lalla Aicha and Lalla Meryem.
