What is the meaning of the name Arinka ?

The baby name Arinka is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced ah-REEN-kah (IPA: /ɐˈrʲinkə/); anglicized: AH-rin-kah (IPA: /ˈɑːrɪŋkə/).

Arinka is Slavic in Origin.

Arinka is an East Slavic diminutive of Arina, the Russian vernacular form of Greek Eirene meaning "peace." Formed with the affectionate suffix -ka, Arinka (often transliterated Arin'ka) conveys "little Irene" or "peaceful one," and functions primarily as a pet name within Russian and Ukrainian naming traditions.

Common in household speech and literature of the 18th-19th centuries, it now occasionally appears as an independent given name in Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus, and among diaspora communities. Related forms and variants include Arina, Irina, Iryna, and their nicknames Arisha, Arinochka, and Ira; cognates are Irene and Irena. Spelling variants may include Arynka. Note that it is sometimes confused with Hungarian Aranka ("little gold," from arany), which is etymologically unrelated. Overall usage is uncommon but recognizable due to the enduring popularity of Arina/Irina across Slavic languages.
