Is Marina a latin girl name?
Marina is latin and orignated from "Mars"





Amara - Greek "eternal" and latin for "sour" or "bitter"





I like the name it originated from which is Amarantha.

Reply:My daughter is called Marina. Her great-grandmother has the same name (she is Brazilian) and her grandmother (my mother-in-law, who is German) is also called Marina. So, it's quite international. It means from the sea. In Portuguese, for instance, mar is sea. It is a latin name, but also common in countries like Russia! There was once a Princess Marina in the UK, but I think she came from Russia. Ray Davis wrote a song for her "She has a hat like Princess Marina". There are lots of songs dedicated to this name. I think Amara is also beautiful. I have a friend who has just named her son Amaro. I think it means "sour" which I don't see exactly as a problem. I think Amara, despite being uncommon, sounds beautiful and very romantic. Even if it means sour (you need to check), reminds me more of "amar" which is love in Portuguese (not sure about Latin, but as Portuguese comes from Latin there must be a conection there). I think both names are beautiful!

Amarantha is a name that's just trying too hard to sound unusual and exotic.





Try Amira (Hebrew) and pronounce it "ah-MEER-ah".
Reply:Amara is better, it means unfading (derived from Amaranta, Amarantha)
