Shantella
Meaning of Shantella
Shantella (shan-TEL-uh) springs from the ancient Sanskrit “Shanta,” meaning peaceful, and adds a playful –ella twist that gives it a dash of lyricism. The result is a name that feels both timeless and fresh—like a monsoon breeze carrying jasmine across festival lights, bright and full of promise. In Indian homes, peace is a treasured guest, and a girl named Shantella might grow up with the steady grace of a lotus rising through still waters. The name enjoyed a quiet climb in the US during the late ’80s and early ’90s, offering a warm alternative to more common favorites. Every time you say Shantella, you’re wrapping a little serenity—and a subtle Bollywood sparkle—around your tongue.
