What is the meaning of the name Angelina ?

The baby name Angelina is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced Common pronunciations: /ænˈdʒɛlɪnə/ (an-JEL-ih-nuh) or /æn.dʒəˈliːnə/ (an-juh-LEE-nuh).

Angelina is Italian in Origin.

Angelina is a Latinate feminine name, an elaboration of Angela from Late Latin angelus, ultimately Greek angelos “messenger, angel.” The -ina suffix adds a tender, diminutive nuance, yielding the sense “little angel” or “angelic.” The form appears across Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Russian (Ангелина), long favored in both Orthodox and Catholic traditions. The meaning evokes purity, guidance, and protection.

Documented in medieval Southern Europe and the Balkans - borne by Saint Angelina of Serbia (15th century) - the name later spread into English use. It gained 19th‑century visibility via abolitionist Angelina Grimké and rose sharply around 2000 with actress Angelina Jolie, peaking in many English‑speaking charts. Variants and related forms include Angela, Angeline/Angéline, Angelica, Angelika, and Evangeline/Evangelina; nicknames include Angie, Lina, and the Russian pet Gelya. Today Angelina balances sacred resonance with international polish.
