Marthine is Scandinavian in Origin.
Marthine is a Scandinavian feminine given name, chiefly Norwegian and Danish, representing an older spelling of Martine, the female form of Latin Martinus. Martinus derives from the Roman theonym Mars and means “of Mars,” hence “warlike” or “dedicated to Mars.” The inserted h reflects 18th–19th‑century Danish-Norwegian orthography, where th often marked a hard t without changing pronunciation.
Parish records from the 1800s show Marthine in rural Norway and coastal Denmark; by the 20th century it yielded to Martine and Martina, and today Marthine reads as rare, vintage, yet familiar. Close variants include Martine, Martina, Martyna, and the masculine Martin; related spellings feature Marthina and Martine/Martina without the h, the letter being orthographic rather than phonetic. Nicknames and short forms include Tine, Tina, and Marti, and the name appeals to those seeking a Nordic twist on a classic with strong Roman resonance.
