What is the meaning of the name Klarina ?

The baby name Klarina is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced klah-REE-nah,/klɑːˈriːnə/,/kləˈriːnə/.

Klarina is Latin in Origin.

Klarina is a feminine given name formed as an elaborated diminutive of Klara/Clara, ultimately from Latin clarus, meaning 'clear, bright, illustrious'. The -ina ending is a common affectionate suffix across Slavic and Romance languages, so the form arises naturally wherever Klara/Clara is used. In some records it appears with diacritics (Klárina, Klarīna) to match local orthography.

Use is most evident in Central and Southeastern Europe - Croatian, Serbian, Bulgarian, Macedonian, Slovene, and Polish contexts - where pet forms of Klara sometimes entered official registers in the late 19th and 20th centuries under the influence of Catholic devotion to St. Clare of Assisi. Related forms and variants include Klara, Clara, Chiara, Clare, Clarina, Klarinka, Clarine, and Clarissa (a Latinate elaboration). The shared meaning evokes brightness and renown, and in countries with name days, Klarina typically follows Klara's celebration on 11 August.
