I love [name_f]Stella[/name_f]! I know two kids named [name_f]Stella[/name_f], but they are 11-14 years in age, so probably won’t be a problem. I think [name_f]Stella[/name_f] is a really beautiful name, and I would love being named [name_f]Stella[/name_f].
Middle names:
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Adeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Angelina[/name_f]

[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Marilyn[/name_f]

I think [name_f]Stella[/name_f] is really cute, but unfortunately that’s one of my dogs names… so that’s what if always think of.

I love [name_f]Stella[/name_f]! I love the sound, I love the meaning. I don’t think it’s particularly common here in the UK :thinking: although I don’t spend much time around kids. I’ve met one, several years ago. She was a young child but would be a teenager now. I definitely think it works on any age. I think it works with a lot of different styles of middles too, it’s very versatile!

Hmm…

In theory I should like the name [name_f]Stella[/name_f] it’s spunky, bright and has a sweet vintage flair. I personally don’t know anyone called [name_f]Stella[/name_f]. So it feels unique BUT I also strongly associate the name with this cheap beer that is popular in the UK [name_f]Stella[/name_f] Artois and I can’t get passed this association so I wouldn’t use it.

Stella is a lovely name! I’ve never met anyone called stella before. It fits in well with the popular ā€˜space’ themed names like [name_f]Luna[/name_f], [name_f]Aurora[/name_f], [name_f]Elara[/name_f] etc that are popular at the moment. It also fits well with the popular ā€˜L’ names like [name_f]Lila[/name_f], [name_f]Ella[/name_f], [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], [name_f]Elle[/name_f], [name_f]Isla[/name_f] but feels more unique.
The only thing that would put me off personally is that I’m from the UK and there is a very well-known cheap beer brand called ā€˜[name_f]Stella[/name_f] Artois’. But that wouldn’t be a problem if you’re not from the UK. Overall, I think [name_f]Stella[/name_f] is really lovely and would definitely suit a baby, child, teen, adult and older person.
Middle names I would choose:
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Frances[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Imogen[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]/Evangelina

I’m not the biggest fan myself (all that ever comes to mind is the scene of [name_m]Marlon[/name_m] [name_m]Brando[/name_m] yelling it in Streetcar) but I do think it has a beautiful meaning and is totally wearable as a name. I also think it’s a lovely nickname for the slightly more out there [name_f]Stellamaris[/name_f].

Some ideas for middles:
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Lucia[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_u]Jude[/name_u]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]

There’s a 3 year old [name_f]Stella[/name_f] who lives down the street. She’s the only one I’ve ever met. It’s a sweet name, means star in Latin/Italian.

Ideal mns would be old fashioned, feminine but not too frilly girl names.
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Irene[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Fiorenza[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Therese[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f]

I love [name_f]Stella[/name_f]! The charts say it’s popular but I only know one [name_f]Stella[/name_f]! I think it’s cute and spunky but not cutesy! It’s been on my list for a while!

I see it on TV every now and again, but I’ve never met anyone with the name.

Stella [name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Georgia[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f]

It seems like a popular name but I’ve only ever met one person named [name_f]Stella[/name_f], and she’s probably about 15 now. For some reason, I’ve personally never liked the name, but in theory it’s pretty sounding

Stella is pretty! In my mind [name_f]Stella[/name_f] is a word name so I prefer something non-wordy to go along with it, like [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]!

Every time I hear [name_f]Stella[/name_f] I can only think of that one scene in the movie ā€œOver the Hedgeā€ and can’t help but laugh.

I am a teacher and see common names a lot. I have only ever taught two Stellas and it was different years. I don’t think it is AS popular as names like [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] or [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f], which I have taught a lot.

Middle name options:

Stella [name_u]Rae[/name_u]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]

I’ve never met a [name_f]Stella[/name_f] - I really like the name! How I Met Your Mother fans will quickly associate the name with a not-so-great character, but I wouldn’t let that stop you!

I want to love [name_f]Stella[/name_f], but it just sounds harsh and sharp to me, especially next to its cousin [name_f]Estella[/name_f]/Estelle. I do know one little girl called [name_f]Stella[/name_f].
