Calla Meaning and Origin

The name Calla is a girl’s name meaning “beauty” and is of Greek origin. The name Calla is also the name of the calla lily flower. There are also several other origins for the name calla. Calla may be related to the Italian surname Callà, from two habitational names from the towns Catllà, or and El Catllar. In Swedish Calla is a short form of Carolina and an alternate form of Kalle which is given name and surname. It is also a diminutive form of Irish Caoileann. We think it’s pretty safe to say that this one, though still rare, will start joining other floral sisters like Rose and Lily at the top.
