Uranja

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Dutch

Meaning: Heavenly; Of heaven

Uranja is seen to be the Dutch alternative of the name Urania. Originally taken from Greek, it means “heavenly” or “of heaven.” Perhaps this sheds some light as to why Urania is the name of the goddess of astronomy and stars in Greek mythology. More often than not, this goddess is depicted holding a globe and a compass. So naming your newest and brightest star after this goddess can be an endearing way to let them know that whenever they feel lost, all they need is to look within.
