Marrina

Marrina is an uncommon feminine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a variant spelling of Marina, which derives from the Latin word 'marinus' meaning 'of the sea.' Another possibility is that it originated as a creative modern variant with the doubled 'r' to give the name a distinctive appearance. Marrina gained some recognition through the Marvel Comics character Marrina Smallwood, who first appeared in 1983 as a member of the Canadian superhero team Alpha Flight. While never reaching mainstream popularity, the name may appeal to parents seeking an oceanic association with a slightly unconventional spelling that maintains familiar pronunciation. The name evokes images of the sea and carries a gentle, flowing quality.

Pronounced mah-REE-nah.
