History & Origin

Eugina is a variant of Eugenia, the feminine of Eugene, from the Greek eugenes, 'well-born, noble.' The fuller Eugenia has long Christian and European use, borne by saints and empresses. Eugina pares the name to three tidy syllables while holding onto its dignified meaning, and it never became common in American use.

It was never common, given to only about sixteen girls a year around its peak near 1980. A girl named Eugina then is in her forties today.

Did you know? Eugenia and Eugene share the 'well-born' root; the Eugina spelling is a rarer, streamlined take on the feminine form.
