Cinthia
About Cinthia
Cinthia is a feminine name, an alternative spelling of the more common Cynthia, which derives from Greek mythology. The name refers to Artemis, goddess of the moon and hunting, who was born on Mount Cynthus on the island of Delos. This spelling variation with 'i' instead of 'y' gives the name a slightly more exotic or modern flair while maintaining its classical roots. Cinthia gained some popularity in Spanish-speaking countries and in the United States during the latter half of the 20th century. The name carries associations of mystery, independence, and natural beauty through its mythological connections. Despite being less common than the traditional spelling, Cinthia maintains the same melodic quality and elegant femininity.
Pronounced SIN-thee-ah.
As of October 2026, Cinthia ranked #7976 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #942 in 1996.
