Celia is a given name for females of Latin origin, as well as a nickname for Cecilia, Celeste, or Celestina. The name is often derived from the Roman family name ''Caelius'', thought to originate in the Latin ''caelum'' ("heaven"). Celia was popular in British pastoral literature in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, stemming from Shakespeare's use in the play ''As You Like It''. Celia is also the name of the main character in the series Celia's Journey, by Melissa Gunther. == Names with similar meanings in other languages == *Kūlani ("heavenly", Hawaiian) *Silke (German) *Célia (French) *Celia (Polish) *Ουρανία ("heavens", Greek, pronounced "urania") *Cèlia (Catalan) *Celia (Spanish, Galician) *Célia (Portuguese) ==People with the name== *Celia Adler, actress *Celia Barlow, politician *Celia Birtwell, textile designer *Celia Corres, field hockey player *Celia Cruz, singer *Celia Dropkin, poet *Celia W.
