Orsolla is a rare feminine name of Latin origin. It derives from Latin ursa and means "little she-bear." Orsolla's more popular form, Ursula, is tied to the Greek myth of Callisto. During her tryst with Zeus, she is turned into a bear and set among the stars in the constellation Ursa Major. Callisto's story is one of deception and tragedy but also enduring love. It will inspire baby Orsolla to navigate life with resilience and curiosity and leave an indelible mark on the world.
