Evina

Meaning of Evina

Evina is a feminine given name that emerged as a contemporary elaboration of the timeless Eve, tracing back to the Hebrew Chavah (“life”) via Latin Eva, with the diminutive suffix –ina lending a graceful sense of renewal. In French it is pronounced ay-VEE-nah (/e.vi.na/), while in English it typically appears as eh-VEE-nuh (/ɛˈviːnə/). Though still rare in the United States, Social Security data record nine newborn Evinas in 2023 (rank 949), ten in 2021 (rank 937) and similarly modest tallies in previous years, a pattern that underlines its understated charm and potential for individuality. Its harmonious blend of biblical heritage and soft modernity positions Evina as a name both familiar in origin and refreshingly distinct.
