Selene is a female given name taken from Selene (Greek Σελήνη [selɛ̌ːnɛː] ‘moon';) in Greek mythology. Selene was an archaic lunar deity and the daughter of the Titans Hyperion and Theia. Her equivalent in ancient Roman religion and myth is Luna Latin for moon.The etymology of Selene is uncertain but if the word is of Greek origin it is likely connected to the word selas (σέλας) meaning brightness.
