Melita

Meaning of Melita

Melita arrives like sweet honey on a sunny morning. She comes from ancient Greek and Latin. Melita literally means “honey” and once lent her name to the island of Malta. In India, honey stands for warmth and love, so Melita feels like a blessing. She hums with golden charm and quiet strength. Parents might picture her sneaking extra sugar into her chai. In English she’s muh-LEE-tuh, in Italian meh-LEE-tah. Rare but radiant, Melita carries timeless appeal and adventurous spirit.
