Meaning & origin
Eugina is a rarely used feminine name derived from Greek, meaning 'well-born' or 'noble.' According to U.S. Social Security data, it first appeared in records in 1919 but has never entered the top 1,000 names. Its peak year was 1980, though even then it never reached one-in-a-million status. The name has remained consistently very rare, with fewer than five annual births in most recent years, and its trajectory is stable. With no recorded use in any U.S. state as a top name, Eugina is an uncommon choice that carries a classic, elegant etymology.
Eugina is a feminine form of Eugene, derived from the Greek name Eugenios (Εὐγένιος), which means 'well-born' or 'noble' from the elements eu 'good' and genos 'birth, race'. The name has been used in various European languages since the early Christian era, and its popularity in English-speaking countries increased in the 19th century.
