Anjelika Origin and Meaning

The name Anjelika is a girl's name.

Anjelika is a distinctive spelling variant of Angelica, a name derived from the Latin 'angelicus,' meaning 'angelic' or 'like an angel.' This particular spelling incorporates Slavic influences, where the letter 'j' is often used instead of 'g' in similar names. The name carries celestial and spiritual connotations across many cultures. While the traditional spelling Angelica has maintained moderate popularity in the United States, the Anjelika variant remains relatively uncommon, providing a unique twist on a classic name. The spelling variation adds a touch of exoticism and individuality while maintaining the beautiful meaning and pronunciation of the original. Parents might choose this spelling for its distinctive look while preserving the angelic associations and melodic sound of the more traditional form.
