History & Origin

Patrina arose in twentieth-century America as an elaboration on Patricia, from Latin patricius, 'noble,' fused with the popular -rina ending of Katrina and Sabrina. The result is a longer, more ornamental name that keeps Patricia's aristocratic meaning while sounding fresh for its day.

The name crested around 1971 and receded over later decades, placing most bearers in midlife. As a coinage-blend of its era it carries no antique pedigree and has not revived, reading now as an of-the-seventies elaboration of Patricia.

Did you know? Patrina peaked around 1971, when Pat- names and -ina endings were both in fashion.
