A female name. It is mainly derived from Helius as "god of sun". The other origin of this name relates to a persian story book written by Nader Ebrahimi "Bar-e Digar Shahri ke Doost Midashtam ". Nader Ebrahimi, an Iranian writer, screenwriter, photographer, and director, generated the name of the book's heroine by mixing the letter of the word "ELahi الهی" in farsi language. Elahi means "my god, related to god". He mixed four letters of الهی and made هلیا. Then Helia was the heroine of that story book.
"Helia, there are thousand houses in the distance between alienation and unity."

from Nader Ebrahimi's book.

The light of the noble gasses, at. no. 2, used as a lifting agent for zeppelins and balloons. If you inhale it, your voice will sound really funny like you're pinching your nose. Just don't asphyxiate yourself, or you'll be sorry.

Helium (from Greek: ἥλιος, romanized: Helios, lit. 'Sun') is a chemical element with the symbol He and atomic number 2. It is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, non-toxic, inert, monatomic gas, the first in the noble gas group in the periodic table. Helium is the second least reactive noble gas after neon, and thus the second least reactive of all elements.

It is also widely known for its effect on a person's voice, it changes the tinder and not the pitch. The effect is very similar to Hydrogen when inhaled, and you can try it yourselves! - just don't inhale too much and be in an environment where fire or electricity is involved.
Oh god! Today I tried inhaling Helium! It was extremely fun!
