The answer

A girl should not be named "Aaliya" (آلية) because it has no meaning in Arabic, and it is likely a foreign name. However, if the questioner meant "Taaliya" (تالية) with a 'ta', then there is no objection to naming a girl this, as it means "the reciter" or "the devoted one." It is advisable to choose good names for children.
