Cintia Origin and Meaning

The name Cintia is a girl's name of Portuguese origin.

Cintia is a feminine name derived from Cynthia, which originates from Greek mythology. The name refers to Mount Cynthus on the island of Delos, the birthplace of the goddess Artemis (known as Diana in Roman mythology), who was sometimes called Cynthia. This spelling variation is particularly common in Portuguese, Spanish, and Hungarian language communities, giving it a distinctive international character. Cintia carries the elegant, classical associations of its mythological origins while offering a slightly different visual and phonetic quality than the more common Cynthia. The name evokes connections to the moon, as Artemis/Diana was a lunar goddess, suggesting brightness, beauty, and celestial qualities.
