Queen or white shadow
Ginna is primarily used as a diminutive of Virginia, meaning 'maiden,' or Regina, meaning 'queen.' It is also occasionally used as a variant of Gwendolyn, which translates to 'white circle' or 'fair bow.' In modern usage, it stands alone as a rare, breezy alternative to the more common Jenna or Gina.
