Does anyone know the origin of the name Celeste?

Is it English?

Does anyone know the origin of the name Celeste?
This is what www.ancestry.com has to say about the name,


Celeste


French, now also quite common in the English-speaking world: from Latin Caelestis “heavenly”, a popular name among early Christians. Variant: English: Celeste.





hope this helps.
Reply:Celeste is Latin origin meaning 'heavenly' or 'of the stars'. And it appears the French used it first to name children, then the English.
