Meaning & origin
Syrina is an exceedingly rare name in the United States, first recorded in 1969. It reached its peak usage in 1998, though it has never been common enough to rank among the top 1000 names. The name's trajectory has remained stable over the decades, with no significant revival or decline. Its origins are uncertain, but it is likely a modern respelling or variant of Serena, drawing on the Latin serenus meaning 'clear, tranquil'. While Syrina has never been concentrated in any particular state, its unique, melodic quality has attracted a small number of parents seeking an uncommon name.
Syrina likely emerged as a modern coinage, possibly influenced by the name Serena, from Latin serenus meaning 'clear, tranquil', or as a feminine form of Syrus, from Latin Syrus meaning 'from Syria'. It may also be a creative respelling of Serena. The name has been used in the United States since the late 1960s, but its exact origin remains uncertain.
