Hasina

Meaning of Hasina

Hasina is a feminine name of Arabic origin, formed as the counterpart to Hasan and carrying the meanings “beautiful,” “good,” or “virtuous.” It has been embraced in Swahili-speaking regions with virtually the same connotations of moral excellence and aesthetic grace. Bearers of the name have included prominent figures such as Sheikh Hasina, the long-serving prime minister of Bangladesh, underscoring its association with leadership and resilience. Though relatively uncommon in the United States, Hasina has appeared intermittently on the Social Security Administration’s top-1,000 list since the 1970s, most recently ranking 951st in 2023—an indication of its quiet and enduring appeal.
