Litina is in Origin.

Litina is a rare feminine given name built on the pan-European diminutive ending -ina (from Latin -ina). It usually extends the short forms Lita or Tina, pet names found across Romance and Greek usage. Lita often abbreviates Carmelita or Angelita, while Tina shortens names like Cristina, Martina, or Valentina. Pronunciation: li-TEE-nah or lee-TEE-nah.

Its recorded use is modern and sporadic, with small clusters in Mediterranean and Latin-American communities; in Central/Eastern Europe it can also echo the place or surname Litina. It seldom appears in traditional saintly or classical calendars, reinforcing its contemporary, affectionate feel. The meaning is relational rather than lexical: an affectionate or "little" Lita or Tina, and by extension whatever the source name conveys (for example, little angel via Angelita). Variants and near-forms include Letina, Litena, and Lytina; related nicknames are Lina, Lita, and Tina.
