Shekilla Origin and Meaning

The name Shekilla is a girl's name.

Shekilla is an uncommon feminine name that appears to be a modern creation or variant. It may be related to the Hebrew name Shekinah, which refers to the dwelling or presence of God, though with a distinctive spelling and pronunciation. The name has a rhythmic quality with emphasis on the second syllable. Shekilla has remained quite rare in usage statistics, making it a unique choice that's unlikely to be shared with many others. The name has a contemporary feel while still offering a potential connection to spiritual meaning if derived from Shekinah. Its distinctiveness allows it to stand out while the familiar phonetic elements make it accessible. The name may appeal to parents seeking something modern and unique while potentially maintaining cultural or religious significance.
