From the moon or of the forest
Sylena is a modern blend likely derived from the Greek name Selena, meaning moon, or influenced by the Latin root Silvanus, meaning forest. It combines the celestial elegance of moon-related names with the organic feel of woodland etymology. While rare, it offers a unique twist on more common names like Selena or Sylvia.
