History & Origin

Anjelina respells Angelina, the Italian and Spanish pet form of Angela, from Greek angelos, 'angel,' with the tender -ina ending — 'little angel.' The j gives the name a Latin-flavored spelling common in Spanish-speaking families, while the sound stays the same.

Anjelina appeared in modest numbers, cresting in the mid-two-thousands alongside the wider fame of Angelina. Its bearers are young, and the name reads as a warm, Latina-flavored spelling of a beloved angel name.

Did you know? Anjelina's classic form, Angelina, became a global fixture through actress Angelina Jolie, whose fame in the two-thousands helped lift both the standard name and creative spellings like this one.
