Albina Albina is the name of a distant cousin on my tree and has given me problems trying to find the meaning of it. In the end I resorted to good old Wikipedia for the answer. Albina  (ahl-BEE-nah) is a feminine given  name  from the Roman cognate Albinus, derived from the Latin albus,  meaning  "white" or "bright".  See also:  Albinus ,  Albin ,  Aubin Meaning:  "white", "bright" Language(s):  Latin Pronunciation:  ahl-BEE-nah https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albina I never met this cousin so I don't know if she was fair haired or fair skinned.
