Petrina

US Popularity Rank: 9546

Origin: Greek

Meaning: Rock, stone

Petrina is a girl’s name of Greek origin. A fun twist on the feminine name Petra, which comes from Peter, Petrina means “rock” or “stone.” In the mythical world, rocks are claimed to carry a mystical charm. In Ancient Egypt, malachite was associated with Hathor, the goddess of the sky, while quartz is said to be laced with all the luck your tiny tot will need in life. Some might say that rocks and stones are no more than Mother Nature’s making, but—who knows—maybe those named Petrina have the power to see their magic.
