Origin: Scottish

Meaning: Smooth brow

A subtle nod to literature, Mavina is a girl’s name possibly of Scottish origin inspired by Malvina. This magical-sounding name was created by the Scottish poet James MacPherson, intending it to mean “smooth brow” from its Gaelic roots mala and mhìn. For the little muse plucked right out of poetry, Mavina lends a romantic choice.
