Polline is Italian in Origin.

Polline is a rare Francophone feminine given name, generally viewed as a clipped or creative variant of Apolline, the French form of Apollonia derived from the Greek theonym Apollōn (Apollo). Its sense is “of Apollo,” invoking light, artistry, and healing. The spelling sits between Apolline and Pauline, so some interpret it as a bridge of those classics; in Italian it also echoes polline, “pollen,” a nature-tinged association rather than a true origin.

Recorded use is sporadic from the late 20th century onward, chiefly in France and Belgium, with occasional appearances elsewhere as a stylistic twist on Apolline. Close relatives include Apolline, Apollina, Apollonia, and the Slavic Polina/Apollinariya; sound-alikes but etymologically separate are Pauline and Paulina. Nicknames such as Polly, Po, and Lina fit naturally, keeping Polline distinctive yet anchored in venerable Apollonian tradition.
