Your view of what makes a perfect name might just change when you find the feminine title Sheelah. A variant of Sheila or Sheelagh, Sheelah has English roots, though the Irish Síle is its ultimate inspiration. Deriving from the Latin title Cecilia, Síle means "blind," and shares this definition with Sheelah, Sheila, and all their many respellings. While they might think you're not watching, sweet Sheelah will soon learn that you have a sixth sense for knowing when they're on the move or getting up to something!
