Celestina Boninsegna (1877 – 1947) was an Italian operatic dramatic soprano, known for her interpretations of the heroines in Verdi's operas. Although particularly eminent in Verdi's works, she sang a wide repertoire during her 25-year career, including Rosaura in the world premiere of Mascagni's Le maschere. Boninsegna made many recordings between 1904 and 1918, and her voice was one of the most successfully captured on disc during that period.

I like it; it's mellifluous. One way of interpreting the meaning of the name is "belonging to the stars" because in the 'elements' part of the glossary it says that -ine, -ino, -inus, and -ina are diminutive suffixes meaning "belonging to." Also, Celestina derives from Caelestis, which meant "of the sky; heavenly" which stars certainly are.

This name is precious and incomparably beautiful. It sounds sleek and silvery, as well as classy, lyrical, sophisticated and cultured. A gorgeous name found in old Spanish literature. I like all the "Celest" names, and if I were to choose a favourite it would be Celestina. What I like about it is it's very cosmopolitan, like Cecilia and Claudia, and will be pronounced beautifully wherever you go. However, I don't really like any of the nicknames. Cel and Tina are okay, but they take away a lot of the beauty and majesty of Celestina. Pity some people feel the need to shorten such a glamourous and perfect name.

"Celestina" is a novel by English poet Charlotte Turner Smith, published in 1791. A political commentary and satire as well as a Cinderella-style courtship novel, "Celestina" tells the story of an adopted orphan named Celestina, a heroine of sensibility who marries the man she loves, Willoughby. Celestina is described as independent, assertive, enlightened, and liberating for young readers; Willoughby, on the other hand, is sentimental and emotional, traits traditionally associated with femininity, reversing the stereotypical gender roles. Jane Austen, an avid reader of Smith's novels, responded to "Celestina" with "Sense and Sensibility", even naming the hero John Willoughby.

How beautiful, melodic, and ultra-feminine! And if she turns out to be an incorrigible tomboy, you can always just call her Tina.

An even more tomboyish nickname could be Les, as it is usually short for Leslie, which is unisex.
P.S. This name is fantastic! So... celestial :)
