Melena
Meaning of Melena
Melena is like a warm monsoon breeze across a jasmine garden. She springs from the Greek for “honey,” carries a Slavic whisper of “dear one,” and even winks at Spanish speakers with its meaning of “mane”—imagine a young lioness flipping her silk-soft hair! In India, she feels like saffron sunrise over palace gardens, bright and full of promise. She’s steadily climbing the US baby-name charts, charming families with her smooth, rolling melody. Little Melena is pure gold in a single, sweet syllable.
