Ciela? what does this girl name mean and background
I originally asked about this name in early Jan. But looking back I cannot find that post. I was out of town for several weeks and did not check during that time for responses.So anyways, I love the name Ciela but cannot find anywhere what it means. I am considering it for my third child (due in three months and gender unknown). I have always liked unusual names and heard this one on a televised dog show - name of a dog (gasp!). Can anyone help me out with it??

Maybe its related to the French Ciel, meaning sky or heaven. Ciel is derived from the Latin "cælum," meaning sky (which some would argue was stolen from the *Albanish*).

Or maybe it comes from cielo (ciela being a feminine form of the word)that is spanish and also means sky.
