The full name is Appolinaria. This one descends from the word Apollo. In ancient Greek and Roman mythology Apollo is the god of the sun, medicine, poetry, music, and prophecy. He is usually shown in pictures and sculptures as a beautiful young man. Actually, Polina is one of rare Russian names.
There are few people who can give the name Polina to their daughter. Maybe that is why there are not so many sacrificial and generous people like her nowadays?
Among children Polina is sympathetic, appeasable and friendly. She is always ready to give a helping hand to others and to encourage them. She is able to console, calm and sympathize with people. On the other hand, Polina does not seem to ever be envious. If people are happy - she will enjoy it with them as well.
If you get acquainted with a Polina, you are likely to get an impression that this woman is full of love to people, to animals and in general, to everything living that surrounds us. At school she is the key person to help the teacher, is tactful and patient with her schoolmates. A girl with such a name is hardly able to hurt anybody.
She is unusually neat. Adult Polina likes to put on beautifully, has got a perfect taste, but she is economical, does not waste a lot of money: Polina is more likely to make a dress for herself than to waste money on shopping. She is detailed and reliable in business, so that sometimes people happen to take advantage of it.
Polina is disinterested and unselfish; she can be pleased with any trifling knick-knack. She is extremely harmless and, even seeing her husband flirting with her best friend, she will try to justify him. But, certainly, you should not use her all-forgiving character.
Family interests Polina always puts above all. Career, professional success, business ambition does not seem to interest her at all. She aspires to find such work which would enable her to spend more time at home. Polinas make the best mothers.
