Zofina is Polish, Slavic in Origin.
Zofina is a Slavic elaboration of Zofia, the Polish form of the Greek name Sophia, from sophía “wisdom.” The -ina suffix functions as an affectionate or ornamental ending across Slavic tongues and occasionally Romance languages. Pronounced zo-FEE-nah, the name preserves the distinctive Z- of Central European spellings. While Zofia has been well established in Poland since the Middle Ages and reinforced by the cult of Saint Sophia, Zofina surfaces sporadically in 19th–20th‑century parish and civil records in Poland, Slovakia, and neighboring regions, and sees modest contemporary revival.
Related forms include Zofia; Zofija/Žofija (South Slavic and Slovene); Czech Žofie; and international cognates Sophia, Sofia, Sofija, and Sofie, alongside Sofina. Common nicknames and diminutives are Zosia, Zofka/Žofka, Fina, Ina, and Zo. The meaning centers on “wisdom,” often connected with learning, prudence, and divine insight, lending Zofina a cultured yet approachable character.
