Hibernine is Latin in Origin.

Hibernine is a rare modern given name formed on the Latin stem hibern- (“winter”) and the suffix -ine, with an echo of Hibernia, the classical Latin name for Ireland (also recorded as Ivernia). It can thus carry a double sense: “wintry; of winter” and, by association, “Irish” or “from Ireland.” The root hibernus/hibernalis in Latin meant “wintry,” while Hibernia was the Roman geographers’ term for the island.

Usage as a personal name is extremely uncommon, mostly in contemporary English-speaking countries as a coined, nature-tinged choice. It reads as unisex, though the -ine ending may skew feminine in modern taste. Related forms include Hibernia, Iverna, Erin, and the adjective Hibernian; the scholarly combining form Hiberno- survives in terms like Hiberno-English. Possible short forms are Hibi, Nina, and Bina. Hibernine suits parents seeking a Latinate name linking winter imagery with Irish heritage.
