Selma Björnsdóttir
Origin: Iceland. Cross-linked to every Eurovision entry featuring this artist.
Selma is a feminine name of ambiguous origin. It could be a form of Selima, which in turn is a name first recorded in a poem by Thomas Gray. One possibility is that Selima was influenced by the Arabic name Selim meaning "peaceful". In Turkey, the name is a variation of the Arabic female name Salma. The name may also have Celtic origins, in which case it means "beautiful view".
