Trafeena

[sg]

Have you heard this name before?

I met a lady called Trafeena. I don't know exactly how it is spelt, could be Traffina. Has anybody heard this name before? How do you spell it?

She is English but possibly has Scandinavian roots.

thanks

there is an old Fench girls name, Trifine, Trifina, Trifin, that is the nearest i can find, there are instances of it in America in the 17 and 1800s in the Genelaogical records on certain ancestral research sites.

Though it is also Biblical:

We've got a Tryphena at work, another variation.

[Octavius]

The girl's name Tryphena is of Greek origin, and its meaning is "delicacy." Biblical: the name appears in one of Paul's epistles to the Romans. Rare.

Tryphena has 5 variant forms: Trifena, Triphena, Tryphana, Tryphaena and Tryphenia.

Only a matter of time before there is a Trifina Dingle then.
