Meaning & History
Meaning uncertain. A famous bearer of this given name was Settela Steinbach (1934-1944), a Dutch Sinti girl who lost her life in the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II. She posthumously became an icon of the Holocaust, due to her brief appearance in a video of the transit camp Westerbork, which had been made by fellow Holocaust victim Rudolf Breslauer (1903-1944 or 1945).
