Kaleena is English in Origin.

Kaleena is a modern feminine given name pronounced kuh-LEE-nuh. It blends or adapts several sources: as a respelling of Slavic Kalina (Polish, Ukrainian, Bulgarian), it evokes the viburnum/guelder-rose and its folklore associations with beauty, resilience, and love; through Hawaiian Kalena, a local form of Katherine, it can share the Greek meaning “pure.” It also reads as an elaboration of Lena/Leena, linking to the pan-European short form of Helena and to Arabic Leena “tender, soft.”

Use in the United States and other Anglophone countries increased in the late 20th century, remaining uncommon and cross-cultural. Variant forms include Kalina, Kalena, Kalyna, Kaleenah, and Kaleen; related names are Lena, Leena, Alina, and Helena. Nicknames range from Kali and Kae to Lina. Its fluid roots and gentle cadence give Kaleena a contemporary feel while carrying layered meanings from several traditions.
