Origin: Russian

Meaning: Little girl; Great-granddaughter

A variant of Nina, Ninotchka is a Russian feminine name. With its meaning of “little girl” and “great-granddaughter,” this is an apt choice for the littlest one in the family. An iconic 1939 film Ninotchka starring Greta Garbo, is also famously associated with the name. If you are a massive fan of her work and would like to pay tribute, maybe naming her after the character for which she received her third and final Academy Award nomination would be touching indeed.
