Lale (لاله in Persian) is the Turkish and Persian word for "tulip." The tulip is the national flower of Turkey and was first cultivated by Ottoman gardeners.
Lale is widely used in Turkey, Iran, and the Turkish diaspora.
Lale does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Lale reduce to 3, The Communicator. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
