Origin: Polynesian variant of names like Magdalene or Madeleine; original Polynesian name meaning ‘beautiful’ or ‘bold.’ Matalena is the feisty mom, who will stand up for anyone who is being bullied. She is the kind woman who gives to every hurting person she sees. If you’ve ever been picked up in the rain and delivered home safely by a stranger, or been given a woman’s last $20, the person helping you was probably named after or raised by a Matalena. Her only weakness is her pride — she has a tendency to think her way is the only way. But she is a prayerful person, who learns humility through God. She is a follower of Jesus and a great dancer, even if her kids make fun of her as she dances! Matalena is intelligent and can be anything in the world, but her greatest joy will come from being a mother, aunty, and grandmother. She is a protector and a loving sister. She loves all of God’s creatures, but especially dolphins and pit bulls named Jacques. If you know a Matalena, you know that you can conquer any obstacle, because her strength and fearlessness tells you so.
