Georgina (name)

Georgina is a given name and the feminine form of George, along with Georgia and Georgiana. It comes from the Greek word γεωργός (georgós; γέω, géo, "earth" + έργο, érgo, "work"), meaning "farmer".

The name's recent increase in usage, especially among Hispanic parents, has been attributed to the influence of Georgina Rodríguez, the subject of a Netflix series I Am Georgina in early 2022.
