Cristabela is Italian, Latin in Origin.
Cristabela is a Romance blend name, an Iberian-leaning elaboration of Christabel. The first element, Crist-, comes from Greek Christos via Latin Christus ("the anointed; Christ"), conveying "Christian" or "of Christ." The second, -bela/-bella, descends from Latin bellus ("beautiful"), common in Portuguese and Spanish names. Together the name expresses "beautiful Christian," "beauty of Christ," or "beautiful in Christ."
Forms of Christabel surface in medieval England and were notably revived by Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem Christabel (1816), which seeded modern English use. Cristabela reflects Spanish- and Portuguese-influenced spelling that drops the h and adds a feminine -a, appearing sporadically in Iberia and Latin America from the 20th century onward; it remains rare and has never ranked widely in English-speaking charts. Variants include Cristabel, Cristabella, Christabel, Christabella, Kristabela/Krystabela. Nicknames and short forms: Cris, Bela, Bella, Bel.
