Ofelia
Ophelia is a feminine given name, probably derived from the Ancient Greek word ὠφέλεια (ōphéleia, "benefit").
The name is best known as a character from William Shakespeare's Hamlet who has a tragic end. More modern associations, including Ophelia, a song by The Lumineers, now also influence perceptions of the name, which also has a history of use dating back to the late 1800s. Author Laura Wattenberg noted that the name is elegant, exotic, and similar in style to the popular name Olivia but has a more Gothic, romantic sensibility that some parents find appealing. Ophelia has also been the subject of numerous songs, paintings, film and television productions.
Ofelia is the Spanish-language spelling of the name.
