Kristinka is a charming feminine name with Slavic origins, functioning as an affectionate diminutive of Kristina (or Christina). The suffix '-inka' adds a tender, endearing quality to the base name. Derived ultimately from the Greek 'Christos' meaning 'anointed one,' Kristinka carries the same Christian associations as its root name but with an added layer of warmth and familiarity.
