The original form of Bellona is Duellona, after 'duellum', the ancient and initial Latin word for "war". Later, when over time 'duellum' changed into 'bellum', the name of the goddess was altered accordingly as well.

Bella means both beautiful and war in Latin. Or Bella means beautiful and Bellum means war, I think. So you can say it's from the word of beautiful.

Bellona was actually the daughter of Mars (historians aren't sure, but she is the daughter, wife or sister of Mars). Her celebration day is June 3rd.
