Órlaith
Órlaith is a feminine Irish given name. The meaning of the name derives from the Irish words ór "golden" and flaith "prince", though since names formed with "flaith" are almost exclusively feminine, it is usually interpreted as meaning "princess". The name is sometimes anglicised as Orla or Orlagh.
