HelpSteliana
Does this name sound band to you? I like the sound of it, and the meaning and association with Stella. What would you use as a middle name for Steliana?

I have this name on my PNL and I had never considered that it sounded like a band name until you said this and now I'll probbaly think that every time I see it.
It just fits in with bands like Augustana and Gloriana. Steliana wouldn't surprise me at all in that list.
I still like Steliana, but I do agree with mirfak that Stellana or Stelania would be more interesting.
(And while we're mentioning alternatives, I've always adored Stelara too... even way before it became a medication).

It sounds okay if it's Stel-ee-AH-na.
But it looks bad to me, because I tend to read it like Steely-Ana.
Yet I don't think it'd look prettier spelled Stelliana.
I think Stellana or Stellania would seem more interesting.
I like Stelara or Stellara as well.
Or even Anaestela / Anaëstela / Ana-Estela. I know an Ana-Estela!

I personally wouldn't use it but I think it could be cute with Stella, Ellie or Lany (Laa-ni) as a nickname.
Also wouldn't blink an eye if you said it was a band sounds like a band could be called that for sure :)
