Stinna Origin and Meaning

The name Stinna is a girl's name.

Stinna is an uncommon feminine name with Scandinavian origins, particularly found in Denmark and sometimes in other Nordic countries. It likely developed as a diminutive form of names containing 'stin' such as Christina or potentially as a variant of Stina, which itself is a Swedish short form of Christina. The name Christina derives from Greek, meaning 'follower of Christ.' Stinna has never gained widespread popularity outside of Scandinavia and remains a distinctive choice that carries Nordic cultural heritage. The name has a crisp, modern sound despite its traditional roots. Those named Stinna might appreciate its unique quality and strong phonetic presence. In Denmark, where it's most commonly found, the name evokes a sense of cultural connection while maintaining a certain contemporary appeal.
