Arcella is a rare and unique female given name of Italian origin. Derived from the Italian word 'arcella', which means 'small arch' or 'bow', it is often associated with strength, elegance, and grace. This name was more commonly used in Italy during the 20th century but has since declined in popularity. In recent years, there has been a resurgence of interest in this name due to its distinctive sound and unique meaning.
The name Arcella was quite uncommon throughout most of the 20th century, with only five girls being named Arcella in 1923 and six more in 1970.
