Alla (Russian: А́лла) is a Russian and Ukrainian female given name.

The Eastern Orthodox Church usually relates the name with Saint Alla,^[1] the widow of a Gothic chieftain, martyred in King Athanaric's times. Since the name is also spread among Tatars, there is some speculation that the name has its origin in the pre-Islamic goddess Allat. The name Alla is also widespread in Iceland.

It is also the surname of some Indian families. Especially in Hindu families of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
