I would like to know where the name Tullah came from and what does it mean? I don't think it is a short form of Tallulah (as someone had said...)

Also I am looking for the meaning and origin of the name Telly. The only person I know with this name is the actor Telly Suvalis (sp?)

Any information will be helpful.

Thank You For Your Time.

Telly Savalis's birth name was Aristotle. It would seem Telly is a diminutive form of that that name.

Tullah could be a form of the Hindi name Tula which means "born under the astrological sign of Libra".

Oh Greek One! Paging Oh Greek One!

Perhaps it is Telly Savalas that Maria's thinking about, and if it is, could Telly be short for a Greek name (since he was Greek or Greek-American)?

Otherwise, no idea. Sorry Maria. :)
