Meaning & Origin
A female given name from Latin.
Celina is a girl's and boy's baby name of Latin origin, a variant of Selena or Celine, from the Latin caelum meaning "heaven" or "sky," or possibly connected to the moon goddess Selene. It has been used across Italy, Spain, and Poland for centuries.
Celina carries the luminous, sky-reaching quality of its celestial roots in a gracefully three-syllable form. With over 16,000 U.S. births recorded, it has been a consistent choice in Hispanic-American communities as an elegant alternative to the more common Selena.
