Origin & history of Angelina
Greek angelos (messenger)
→ Latin Angela
→ Italian diminutive Angelina
1
Greek / Italian roots
Angelina is an Italian diminutive of Angela, from the Greek angelos meaning messenger (specifically, a divine messenger or angel). The name has been beloved in Italy for centuries. Angelina Jolie (born Angelina Jolie Voight) is the name's defining modern bearer: she won an Oscar for Girl, Interrupted, became one of the biggest movie stars on Earth, and devoted herself to humanitarian causes as a UN Special Envoy for refugees. She adopted children from Cambodia, Ethiopia, and Vietnam. Angelina Ballerina, the children's book and TV character, gives the name an additional child-friendly association.
