Konstantin Origin and Meaning

The name Konstantin is a girl's name of Russian origin.

Konstantin as a feminine name represents an unusual gender crossover, as it is traditionally a masculine name of Latin origin meaning 'constant' or 'steadfast.' Derived from the name Constantine, it has deep historical roots connected to Roman Emperor Constantine the Great. While predominantly used for boys in Eastern European countries, particularly Russia, Ukraine, and Serbia, its use as a feminine name is extremely rare. The gender-neutral trend may account for some parents choosing it for daughters, appreciating its strong meaning and rich historical connections. The feminine usage might be influenced by the possibility of using 'Konstance' or 'Konstantine' as feminine variants, with Konstantin serving as an unconventional alternative with a distinctive Slavic flair.
