I like it - ending with an "a" sonority--and the letter "h" just adds that subtle, breathy continuance. I guess the "ah" ending preceded by the long "e" vowel might soften the name from the more common (perhaps previously more common) names like John, Mark, William, Paul, or Luke. I see no reason that a boy should not be Selah - or a girl. I would not thank that Selah would naturally suggest need for a shorter version, as Michael shortens to Mike & Suzanne, Suzette, & Susan shorten to Sue.
