Used in the detective series by the husband/wife team of Kelly Roos - Haila and Jeff Troy were also a married team. 1940s, American. Any ideas?

and I am only sorry that
not being a dog I can't bite them.

Haila means `hailstone` in Old English. This info was found in the Official Cornish dictionary of first names (published in 1942).
