Forms of Aikaterine

A pan-European short form often used as a name in its own right, Rina is sister to names like Mina and Lena, popular at the end of the 19th century and showing their pretty if slight faces again. In the Netherlands, Rina itself is sometimes shortened to Rineke, as Tina may become Tineke.

We'd opt for Fiona.

Nickname name that retains an Old Country feel.

An intriguing, elaborate form of Catherine, although the similar Ekaterina may be more usable in Anglophone countries.
