Slender or fair; also associated with the moon
Kelina is a rare name with multiple potential roots. It is often considered a variant of the Irish name Keila or Kelly, meaning slender or fair, or a Hawaiian elaboration of the name Kela. In some contexts, it is used as a diminutive or variation of Selina, which is derived from the Greek word for the moon.
