Pronounced: "Air-LEEN-ah"
(similar to Eric, or Erin, but... Erlina)
An uncommon female
name in US & Canada, but
popular among Southeast Asians.
Erlina is a
name of legend harkening back to days of yore when the lioness hunted for her
family, and survival of the fittest ruled the Earth.
Some who bear the
name Erlina are the fierce descendants of Boudicca and other warrior women of the ancient and pagan Celts of Europe. We are oft-called 'celtic woman', 'girl from Ireland', or simply bear the variation on the noble title Earl in our
name.
Others who bear this name are the warrior queens and princesses of Malaysia, Indonesia, and other parts of Asia, that act as a 'shield' for families, the strength of
children, the pride of
parents and siblings. They exhibit all the protective elements of mother and sisterhood.
We kick
ass and take names... usually of those that mispronounce 'Erlina'. But we never take the names of other Erlinas, because a fight between even two of us would shake the very foundations of the universe and end life as we know it.
Women named Erlina are usually marked by stunning intellect and beauty in proportion to their great strength of will and character. Their friendship is loyal, their love steadfast, and their focus unwavering.
If you know an Erlina, take time today to be kind to her.
Erlina is a strong and beautiful woman.
Erlina is the nicest person on the planet. But...
don'
t get on her bad side.
Erlina's a bitch. But, holy
hell, she gets the job done.
I know an Erlina. You do too? Isn't that neat?!
