Origin, Meaning, And History of Aracely
Aracely is a special name for girls used by Spanish-speaking people in Latin American countries. It is a Spanish Latin American variant of the Spanish name Araceli, a combination of two Latin words, Ara and Coeli, symbolizing ‘altar’ and ‘sky,’ respectively. Hence, a possible interpretation of Aracely could be the ‘altar of the sky.’
Etymologists believe that the name may have originated from a shortened version of a Roman Catholic epithet, María (de) Araceli, of the Virgin Mary. The Basilica of Saint Mary of the Altar in Heaven holds a special place in the hearts of Christians due to its rich religious significance.
Most notably, the church houses the remains of Flavia Julia Helena Augusta, also known as Saint Helena. She was the mother of Emperor Constantine the Great and was regarded highly among people during her time. She is the one who discovered some parts of the cross on which Jesus was crucified and the tomb of Jesus’ burial at Golgotha.
Aracely is a beautiful four-syllable name that strengthens one’s belief in the power of God due to its rich historical significance. It is ideal for babies whose parents want to instill faith in God in their children and the strength to overcome challenges.
The name is unique in itself, with minimal usage worldwide. However, some variants of the name that have given rise to it due to its strong connection with Araceli include Aracelia, Aracelis, Arcelia, Aricela, Ariceli, and Aricelly.
The name Aracely does not appear frequently in popular culture as compared to the spelling variant Araceli. One fictional character with the name isMaría AracelyJosefina Penalba de las Herasor Hummingbird, a superhero hailing from Mexico and featured in Marvel Comics. She first appeared in the 2012 Scarlet Spider series written by Christopher Yost. Interestingly, there are suggestions that she could be the embodiment of Huitzilopochtli, the Aztec God of War, and she has been recognized as a demigod by the High Evolutionary.
The Mexican telenovela Hasta el fin del mundo, previously known as Sangre de guerreras, has a secondary character namedAraceli Fernández, portrayed by Ximena Herrera. The series has been showered with love from the local audience and won the Favorite Program or Series award in the 2015 Kids Choice Awards México.
