Kella

Meaning of Kella

Kella is a vibrant name with old-world charm, blending Latin cella (“small chamber”) with echoes of Celtic words for “bright-headed” warrior. Pronounced KEH-luh, it glides off the tongue like a melody. Though just eleven newborn girls in the U.S. were named Kella in 2024—up from five in 1999—it’s quietly rising, as fresh as a dawn-harvest olive. Picture sunlit courtyards, the laughter of family under warm skies: Kella captures that spirit, offering a sweet, hopeful choice that feels timeless and uniquely their own.
