Meaning & origin
Floella is a delicate vintage name that saw its peak usage in 1927, during the 1920s, a decade when such fanciful feminine forms were fashionable. Despite a resurgence of interest in old-fashioned names, Floella remains rare, with rankings unavailable since the mid-20th century. Its stable trajectory suggests it is a name that has settled into quiet obscurity.
Floella is a feminine given name formed as a diminutive of Flora, itself derived from Latin flos 'flower'. It was most common in the early 20th century, particularly in the 1920s, but has since fallen out of frequent use.
