Palasha is a girl’s name of Greek origin and a variant of Pelagia. Coming from the Greek name Pelagius, this sweet and sailorly moniker means “of the sea.” While Pelagius is said to have been quite popular among martyrs and saints, Palasha is all harmony and hush and is certain to soothe those who listen to its letters. So if you love holy-sounding Pelagius, but you’re looking for a name with a little more lull to it, Palasha might do the trick.
