Andreina
Andreina Origin and Meaning
Andreina is a feminine name primarily used in Spanish and Italian speaking countries, derived from the male name Andreas or Andrew, which comes from the Greek word 'andreios' meaning 'manly' or 'brave.' This beautiful elaboration creates a distinctly feminine form through the addition of the diminutive suffix '-ina.' Andreina has been particularly popular in Venezuela, where it ranks among familiar feminine choices, as well as in parts of Italy. The name carries a melodic quality with its flowing syllables and soft ending. While not extremely common in English-speaking countries, Andreina has maintained steady usage throughout Latin America and Mediterranean regions, offering a romantic alternative to the more common Andrea. Its cross-cultural appeal makes it recognizable across multiple language traditions.
