Meaning of Romina

Romina, pronounced roh-MEE-nah, first danced out of Italy as a feminine spin on Romanus—literally “citizen of Rome”—and still glimmers with visions of sun-warmed cobblestones and Vespa exhaust. Over the years she picked up Spanish flair, an ‘80s pop echo courtesy of singer Romina Power, and a passport full of stamps as American parents caught the vibe; in fact, she’s sprinted from the outer fringes of the U.S. charts in the 1970s to a sprightly No. 418 in 2024. The name feels both vintage and vivacious: part ancient marble column, part modern neon café sign. Romina suits a little explorer who might finger-paint one minute and debate mythology the next, all while her melodic three syllables roll off the tongue like a lullaby with attitude.
