Shelia

Shelia is an English given name that arose as an altered spelling of Sheila, itself an Anglicization of the Irish name Síle. Síle is the Irish form of Cecilia, which derives from the Latin family name Caecilius, ultimately connected to the Latin word caecus, meaning blind. The name gained widespread use in the English-speaking world during the twentieth century, particularly in Ireland, Britain, and Australia. Closely related forms include Sheila, Cecilia, Cecily, and Celia.
