The submitted name database is wrong. Alara doesn't occur in Egyption mythology, and it is definitely not Turkish.

From a quick scan of Google, it appears to be Turkish.

Oh sorry! Really it isn't Turkish? On my last vacation to Turkey, I met a few little girls named Alara... I guess it was just a coincidence. Where is it from then? :)

Maybe it is Turkish, but it's definitely not Egyptian or German. I've never heard of a German woman named Alara. Maybe there are Turkish women in Germany with the name, but not ethnic German women.

I guess that makes sense, thanks for the help :) Wherever it comes from though, it's still a pretty name.
