Stella 
Latin, "Star"
Be prepared for boys to stand outside your window and call "Stella!!" just like Brando did in A Streetcar Named Desire. This former grandma name has become hot once again, especially with the high-fashion set, thanks in part to model Stella Tennant and designer Stella McCartney.
