Majella is a unique and distinctive female given name of Latin origin, meaning "of the sea." It is believed to have been derived from the Roman goddess Maia, who was associated with springtime and growth. In Christian tradition, Majella is often associated with Saint Majella, an Irish monk who lived in the 6th century. The name has a soft and melodic sound, making it appealing for parents seeking a unique yet approachable moniker for their daughter.
"Majella is quite rare, with only six babies named thus in 1963."
