What is the meaning of the name Czarina ?

Czarina is Russian, Slavic in Origin.

Czarina is the English feminine form of “czar/tsar,” the imperial title ultimately derived from Latin Caesar via Old Church Slavonic and East Slavic tsar. It denotes “empress” or “female ruler,” more precisely the wife (or, by extension, the female counterpart) of a tsar. English adopted the cz- spelling under Polish influence, while Russian uses tsaritsa (царица) and the transliterated Tsarina is now common. The title was borne in Russia - and earlier in Bulgaria and Serbia - until the early 20th century.

As a given name, Czarina appeared in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in English-speaking contexts, evoking the glamour and drama of the Romanov court; today it remains uncommon but recognizable and enjoys pockets of use in various countries. Variants and related forms include Tsarina, Tzarina, and Tsaritsa; Zarina is sometimes treated as a streamlined variant but is also an independent Persian name meaning “golden.” Nicknames include Zari, Rina, and Zara.
