History and Origin
Galina, Halina, Halyna (ɢɑʟiɴɑ; from Greek γαλήνη "calmness"; Галина) is a Russian, Bulgarian and Ukrainian female name.
In Ancient Greek myths Galene was one of the Nereid mermaids as the goddess of calm seas. Two Christian female martyrs existed (Orthodox church): first died in 252 (feast day March, 10), other one, most famous Galene of Corinth - in 290 (feast day April, 16).
Russian: of uncertain origin, probably from Greek galēnē calm (cf. Galen). Another possibility is that it may represent a vernacular form of Helen, beside the more learned Yelena.
