Selestina
Selestina Origin and Meaning
Selestina is a feminine name derived from Celestina, which itself stems from the Latin word 'caelestis' meaning 'heavenly' or 'celestial.' This spelling variation with 'S' instead of 'C' gives the name a softer, more distinctive quality while maintaining its ethereal meaning. Selestina evokes images of stars, skies, and heavenly beauty. Though relatively uncommon in English-speaking countries, the name carries romantic overtones and a certain musical quality when pronounced. It offers the potential for nicknames like Seles, Tina, or Selena. Selestina might appeal to parents drawn to vintage-sounding names with spiritual connotations, providing both uniqueness and traditional roots. The name suggests a person of grace, beauty, and perhaps spiritual depth.
