Meaning: Helper to the priest

Camelia is a feminine name of Latin origin, meaning “helper to the priest.” Camelia is also a form of camellia, the name of a beautiful evergreen shrub with gorgeous flowers. This lyrical title comes from the Latin cămēllus, which inspired the name Camilla. Beautifully floral with religious undertones, Camelia exudes purity and will suit your little angel’s bright smile. Carrying a nature-infused name may even inspire a green thumb in baby Camelia.
