Osea
“Osea is the Italian form of Hosea (or Osee), from the Hebrew Hoshea meaning "salvation" or "God saves" — from the root yasha meaning "to save". In the Bible, Hosea is one of the twelve minor prophets, whose book is notable for its use of marriage as a metaphor for God's covenant with Israel. As a given name in Italy, Osea is archaic and rare, found in older religious naming traditions, particularly in the Veneto and Lombardy.”
Elena
“Elena is the Italian and Spanish form of Helen, from the Greek Helene — possibly from helene meaning "torch" or related to helios meaning "sun", or from a pre-Greek word. Helen of Troy gave the name immortal literary status; in Italy and Spain, Saint Helena (Elena), mother of Emperor Constantine, gave it Christian prestige. It is one of the most widespread feminine names across the Romance world.”

Hortensia, the daughter of the orator Hortensius, was celebrated in ancient Rome for her eloquence. The name entered Italian as Ortensia and is associated with the hydrangea flower (ortensia in Italian), giving it additional floral associations.”

The -ella diminutive suffix is characteristically Italian, giving the name a gentle, affectionate quality. It is predominantly used in southern and central Italy, where Antonia and its diminutives have been popular for centuries.”

It is found especially in southern Italy and in some Spanish-speaking communities. The name combines the floral beauty of Rosa with the Germanic -lind suffix that passed into the Romance languages through medieval naming.”
