armena is Armenian in Origin.

Armena is a rare feminine given name with two plausible etymologies. As a Latin/Greek ethnonym from Armenia (Latin Armenia; Greek Armenía), Armena would mean “the Armenian woman” or “from Armenia,” paralleling Armenian female names like Armenouhi and Armine/Armineh. Alternatively, it can be read as a variant of Armina/Ermina, from the Old High German element irmin/ermen “whole, universal,” familiar from names like Irmina and Arminius.

The name surfaces sporadically in 18th–20th‑century English‑speaking records, aligning with toponymic and continental revival tastes, and remains uncommon today. Documented variants and relatives include Armina, Armine, Armineh, Armene, Ermina, Irmina, and the explicitly Armenian Armenouhi; diminutives Mena, Mina, and Armi occur in modern use. Meaning is thus interpreted either ethnically (“Armenian woman; from Armenia”) or abstractly (“whole, universal”), depending on the lineage you favor.
