Stella Maris ("star of the sea") is an historic title for the Virgin Mary, in use since at least the early medieval period.

Under this name, the Virgin Mary is believed to intercede as a guide and protector of seafarers in particular, and many coastal churches are named Stella Maris or Star of the Sea.

Skya is a modern feminine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a creative variation of 'Sky' or 'Skye,' referencing the heavens and conveying a sense of limitlessness and freedom.

With its compact, flowing sound and distinctive appearance, Skya appeals to parents seeking something contemporary yet meaningful. Though rare in statistical records, the name's connection to nature and the celestial realm gives it appealing symbolic depth.
