Stella is an unincorporated community in Calloway County, Kentucky, United States. It was originally called Goshen as that was the name of the community's Methodist church. When a post office was established on February 2, 1895, it became known as Stella and was named for either the daughter of a Mr. Scarborough (who donated the land) or a Mr. Waterfield (a local store keeper). The post office closed in 1904. Some people still refer to the community as Goshen as the Methodist congregation still exists.[2]
