I've been searching of what my name means. I've seen a few ppl that have it but yet we don't know what it means or where it came from. Can some one help me? I'm a female from Texas.

Could be :)
Another possibility is a relation to Celia.

Silia is mentioned as a name in EPISTLE II. To a Lady. Of the Characters of WOMEN.
Alexander Pope (1743)
Perhaps your parents found it there? See http://www.ling.upenn.edu/courses/hum100/lady.html

Basilia is a female name which is Italian/Spanish for Royal. Silia is listed as the short form.
