Felicina is a diminutive form of the Latin name Felicia, which itself is derived from the Roman cognomen Felix. The root word 'felix' means 'lucky,' 'successful,' or 'fortunate.' The addition of the '-ina' suffix in Latin often denotes a diminutive or endearment, making Felicina a 'little lucky one' or 'dear fortunate one.'
This name, and its variations, has been used in various forms throughout European history, particularly in regions influenced by Roman culture and the Latin language.
