feminine · Biblical Greek origin
Deina is a Biblical Greek feminine name derived from the Greek rendering of a Hebrew name, related to the root meaning judgment or God has judged, connecting it to the same semantic field as names such as Dinah. It appears in the Septuagint, the ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew scriptures, as a form used in that translation tradition. The name is closely related to the more widely known variant Dina, which itself is a common short form found across European and Semitic naming traditions.
