Angelica is a Baby Girl Name

Find out the meaning behind the name Angelica.

The name Angelica is a girl's name of Italian, Polish, Russian origin meaning "angel or angelic". Angelica is by far the choicest form of the angelic names -- more delicate than Angelina, more feminine than Angel, more modern than Angela. But though Angelica is so lacy and poetic, it lags behind the bolder Angelina (probably for obvious reasons). Angelica was introduced to England from Italy in the seventeenth cenury, and is heard in early poetry and plays, including Romeo and Juliet. Angelica Schuyler, played by Renee Elise Goldsberry, is one of the most appealing characters in Broadway sensation Hamilton. Anjelica is a variant spelling, as in Anjelica Huston.
