Ursola

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Latin

Meaning: Of Ursula; Little she-bear

Ursola is a fantastical moniker for nurturing baby's imagination. Rooted in Latin ursa and Ursula, it means "little she-bear." Ursola's unbearably cute meaning comes from the Greek myth of Callisto. The goddess was turned into a bear by Zeus' wife, Hera, who then cast her into the night sky. So, when baby admires the stars, you can point out the brilliant constellations Ursa Major and Minor that inspired their name. You may also recognize this feminine pick as the sea witch in the Disney classic The Little Mermaid. Your sweet Ursola will be a dreamer and bear a passion for adventure!
