Help[Facts] Almina - origin, pronunciation, & meaning?
It's not in the data base but I've come across it as a name for girls in Victorian England. I'm wondering whether the alm- bit is pronounced like almond or like al- in Alma.
It's not a name I particularly like, but I'm curious about its orgin and meaning.
