Origin: Yiddish
Meaning: beautiful; God is gracious
Shaina is a girl’s name that means “beautiful.” Although it is often thought to be Irish in origin, it is, in fact, Yiddish, and is reminiscent of the Yiddish phrase, אַ שיינע מיידל, meaning “a lovely girl.” Shaina can also mean “God is gracious.” Both meanings are great for baby Shaina, and will remind her not only of the gift that she is to you, but of the beauty that lies both inside and out.
