Camilla
Featured in baby name books
Camilla is a Latin name meaning “young ceremonial attendant” or “spiritual serving girl.” Camilla is the warrior maiden of Virgil’s Aeneid, and its French form Camille is the heroine of the story behind La Traviata. Camilla may recall Camilla Parker Bowles, so the flower name Camellia offers a similar alternative.
