Sorry for two postings. Forgot that I also needed the above. It is a feminine name-Ethnic background is French Canadian. Thank you

Hi
Regina
,
Obeline looks like a form of Obelia. The origin is Greek and I found two different meanings: 1) needle, 2) obelisk (??). Maybe
Pavlos
knows better?
Regards,
Satu

Obelia is also of Bini origin (a tribe in
Africa
) and means "off the beaten path".
