About Saleta
Saleta is a feminine name with Galician roots. It's a variation of the French name Salette, which itself derives from the title of the Virgin Mary Notre-Dame de La Salette ("Our Lady of La Salette"). This Marian apparition, reported by two children in 1846 at La Salette-Fallavaux, France, is said to have taken place. The location name "Salette" dates back to at least 1696 and appears to have originally been the surname of a local gentleman. Academic research suggests this surname derives from Middle High German and Old High German sal, ultimately originating from Proto-Germanic salaz- or saliz- or salą, "hall; large room".
