Polina is a feminine given name with roots in both Greek and Latin languages. It is most widely used in Eastern Slavic cultures such as Russia, and Ukraine. The name Polina means "little" or "humble" and is derived from the Roman family name Paulinus, which in turn comes from the Latin name Paulus. Over time, the use of Polina has remained relatively consistent in its cultural significance, particularly in Russia and Ukraine, where it is often associated with strength and independence. The name Polina has also been influenced by Greek mythology, as it is related to the name Apollinariya, which is derived from the Greek god Apollo.
