Kellina Origin and Meaning

The name Kellina is a girl's name.

Kellina is a feminine name likely derived from the masculine name Kelly with the feminine suffix '-ina' added. Kelly itself has Irish Gaelic origins, coming from the surname Ó Ceallaigh, meaning 'descendant of Ceallach' (a name meaning 'bright-headed' or 'war'). The addition of the suffix '-ina' creates a more explicitly feminine form with a delicate, melodic quality. Kellina blends Celtic heritage with a romantic, Latin-influenced ending. While not widely used, the name has appeared occasionally in English-speaking countries since the mid-20th century. Kellina offers parents a way to honor Irish heritage while choosing a name that's distinctive and feminine, with an intuitive pronunciation and spelling.
