Meaning: Pure, clean, clear

Give baby a name that may inspire them to become the next big Bollywood star. Hailing from Swedish and Greek roots, Kareena is a feminine name meaning “pure,” “clean,” or “clear.” Kareena is an alternative to Karina, which is an elongated version of Karin, a Swedish short name for Katherine. The moniker traces back to the ancient Greek term καθαρός. A famous namesake for baby is Kareena Kapoor, a Hindi film actor with over 70 credits to her name. Hopefully, one day, baby Kareena will be as celebrated and accomplished as their movie star counterpart.
