What does the name Trina mean?
Trina is a short form of Katrina, says Behind the Name. Wikipedia describes it as a common female first name of Scandinavian origin, based on the Latin word for “triple,” trena, and also used as a shortened form of names such as Katrina. In dance it is a term for a ballerina in training.
Trina nicknames and other forms
Behind the Name gives Katrina as the full form behind Trina, with Katerina, Katharina, Caterina and Catalina among its relatives in other languages. Wikipedia says Trina can also stand for other names with a similar ending. It already works as a short form of its own.
Some famous Trinas
Trina Robbins, born August 17, 1938, was an American cartoonist. Wikipedia says she co-produced It Ain’t Me, Babe in 1970, the first comic book created entirely by women, co-founded the Wimmen’s Comix collective, wrote for Wonder Woman, and was inducted into the Will Eisner Hall of Fame in 2013. She died on April 10, 2024.
Trina through the decades
Trina never appeared in a Social Security top-200 decade table, from the 1880s to the 2010s. Behind the Name’s US chart has it in the top 1,000 in 45 years between 1941 and 1990, best at 172nd in both 1970 and 1971, and it last ranked 911th in 1990.

Who is it for and how she can use it
Whether Trina is eight or eighty, a 6" x 9" notebook is a comfortable size: big enough to write in properly, slim enough to carry. The 160 lined pages don’t come with a set layout, so she decides what it’s for. Journal, planner, class notes, recipes, travel log or doodle book all work. And with her name on the cover, nobody will mistake it for theirs.
Why personalized works
Personalized gifts show you thought about the person, not just the occasion. A notebook with Trina on the cover is affordable, useful every day and still feels special. It’s also a safe choice when you’re not sure of someone’s style, because everyone needs somewhere to write things down.
