feminine · Finnish origin
Eliina is a Finnish feminine name functioning as an elaborated form of Elina, itself the Finnish and Scandinavian adaptation of Helen, which derives from the ancient Greek Helene, possibly connected to the Greek word for torch or bright light, or alternatively linked to Selene, the moon goddess. The name entered Finnish usage as a longer, more formal variant of the popular Elina. Related forms include Elina, Helena, and Elena, which appear across numerous European languages.
