"Vela" means "candle." "Vena" means "vein." In my opinion "Vela" sounds beautiful when said and carries a more interesting meaning. "Vela" and "Vena" are not common names, but if you want one that is unique, I would go with "Vela." :)

I've never heard before Vela or Vena as names. Maybe you want VERA or VALE? If you want it with V I like Vanesa (Vane), Veronica (Vero) Victoria (Vicki) and Valeria (Vale) Check these links, they have a lot of names in spanish with the meanings, you can choose whatever you want. http://www.behindthename.com/nmc/spa_f.php http://www.20000-names.com/female_spanish_names.htm

Hi Ema! I'm from Spain, and I have to say I never heard Vela or Vena before as spanish names. Vela could be ok, but vena does not sound nice to spanish people. Why did you want VELA or VENA?

lol i have 2 names and one is vela jajajajaj.
