Pina

Short and zippy, Pina is a diminutive form of names ending in -pina or -pine, such as Giuseppina or Phillipine, though Josefine, Filipina, Proserpina, Agrippina, Casparina, Pnina, Peninnah, or Perrine might be other long form options.

While English speakers may find the sounds a little difficult to wear (or too connected to the drink Piña colada), and while Swedish speakers will likely associate it to the word for pain and torment, it has been used internationally, notably by dancer and choreographer Pina Bausch and actress Pina Pellicer.

Pronounced PEE-nuh.

As of October 2026, Pina ranked #12685 for girls in US births in 1987 SSA, peaked at #1491 for girls in 1890.
