Béla (given Name)
Béla (; Slavic variants are ''Bela'' or ''Belo'') is a common Hungarian male given name. Its most likely etymology is from old Hungarian ''bél'' ("heart; insides" in Old Hungarian and "intestines" in modern Hungarian; in both the symbolism is "guts" i.e. bravery and character). Another possible source is a Turkic word '' boila''/''boyla'' – "noble, distinguished" (which was a title of high nobility among the Bulgars and Göktürks), or a variant of Ábel. Due to the fame and importance of Saint Adalbert of Prague (~956–997) for early mediaeval Hungarian, Czech and Polish cultural history, the name Béla has been artificially assigned to the Germanic name Adalbert ("noble bright") and the Slavonic name Vojtěch/ Wojciech ("consolator of troops"), although there is no linguistic relationship among these names.
