Caprina

US Popularity Rank: 12211

Origin: Italian

Meaning: Whimsical; Playful; Goat-like

Caprina is an enthusiastic choice for your little one with Italian and Latin-inspired origins. Derived from the Italian word for "goat," capra, Caprina means "whimsical" and playful," qualities that nod to the animal they are named after. Caprina carries a ray or two of sunshine from the picturesque island of Capri off Italy's southwest coast. The Latin connection adds a touch of classical elegance, as caprinus translates to "goat-like," beautifully capturing the endearing spirit of this uniquely sweet name.
