Elestria is a modern coinage for girls, not drawn from an established name list, and it's pronounced eh-LES-tree-uh (IPA /ɛˈlɛstriə/). You may come across the claim that it means 'starry' in Latin, but that doesn't check out — there's no Latin word 'Elestria,' and 'starry' looks like an invented gloss, possibly inspired by the sound of words like 'celestial' or 'stella.' If Elestria is on your list, it's worth choosing it for how it sounds rather than for a meaning it doesn't actually have.
