Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Tina vznikla osamostatnením domáckej skrátenej podoby rozličných ženských mien zakončených na -tína alebo -tina. V slovenskom prostredí sa spája najmä s menom Kristína, môže však byť aj skrátenou podobou mien Martina, Valentína, Augustína, Klementína a ďalších. Nemá preto jediný samostatný etymologický význam.
