An uncommon Native American pick — distinctive and rare.
Xitlalic is a girl's baby name of Native American origin, from the Nahuatl language meaning 'star' (from xitlali). It is a variant of the popular Mexican name Citlali or Xitlali, rooted in Aztec cosmology where stars held profound religious and navigational significance.
Xitlalic is used predominantly in Mexican and Mexican-American families, connecting a daughter to the celestial traditions of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica — a name that literally means she shines like a star.
Xitlalic has 23+ years of history in the U.S., first appearing in 1993.
