Jovina Origin and Meaning

The name Jovina is a girl's name.

Jovina is a feminine name with Latin origins, derived from the Roman family name Jovinus, which relates to Jupiter (Jove), the supreme deity in Roman mythology. The name essentially means 'belonging to Jove' or 'child of Jupiter.' Jovina can also be considered a feminine form of Jovino, used in Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese-speaking countries. Despite its classical roots and melodic quality, Jovina remains quite rare in English-speaking countries. The name has a romantic, somewhat exotic feel with its flowing syllables and distinctive 'v' sound. In some cultures, particularly those with Latin influences, the name may be associated with joy and vitality, reflecting Jupiter's powerful, life-affirming qualities.
