My name's Raina, pronounced Ray-na and meaning queen. I love it! Whenever'someone asks, ?Hey Raina, how do you spell your name?? I say, ?Rain with an a?. I always get complimented for my name. Raina is unique enough that your probably the only person you know with your name, unlike an Emily or an Elizabeth, but It's common enough that people pronounce it right 60% if the time. I'm still waiting for the day I'meet someone with my name. My only complaint is that when someone pronounces it wrong, they usually say Rana, which kind of offends me because I'm pretty sure that means frog in Spanish.
My name is Raina. People love to pronounce it wrong, even'though it is such an easy name. I hardly ever meet anyone with my name. When I was younger I didn't like the name because it was never on any jewelry or anything at the'stores. Now, at 35 I adore being different.
My daughter is 5 month old and her name is Raina. My husband and I have had the name picked out for years, and we were thrilled to have a girl so that we could use it. People constantly tell us what a beautiful name it is, and we agree! For those of you named Raina, it was neat for me to read your comments.
my name is RAINA, ya sometimes pronounce my name as RAYNA,my friends call me as rainy, renu,no i think raina is a very unique name i never met anyone who have the'same name. In indian raina means NIGHT.
my complete first name is rayan raina fe, and every time I introduce myself to people they always asked me what should they call me. I always replied them "It's your choice", then at the end they decided to call me raina because they felt it is unique name for a Filipina, it is uncommon to hear my name in the Philippines

My name is Raina and I Love having the name. It kind of gives me a proud feeling, LOL! In the 70's and 80's it was nowhere near as common of a first name (with this exact spelling) as it is now. It was many, many years before I found out that raina is an old hindi word for 'night'. I have also heard that it means a beautiful starry night. Later variations: Reina, Reyna, etc. came to mean 'queen'
my name is raina, yes it is misspelt and mispronounced all the time. i tell people It's pronounced like ribena (the blaccurrant drink) but without the B, i've been nicknamed Ribena since when I was about three years old anyway. It's fun to be unique anyway
My friend name is Raina, i did't know the meaning until i looked for it and its really a nice and beautiful name even'though i find it difficult in pronouncing it LOL but its really a pleasant name that i will be looking forward to give to any of my daughters when i am finally married the name is really a good one to my friend because she is what the name means a queen.
My name is raina too. It means queen in many different languages. I think the namem itself is very unique and cool.
My name is pronounced like 'Raina' but It's spelt like 'Rıoghnach'. I love my name, though. I get quite a lot of attention for it. But It's great! It's soo pretty. :)

HI'my name is Raina, i've had the'same experiences as the people below. Wrong pronunciation; Renee, riana, rainy. I always get wrong spelling also reina, reyna, rayna and I say Rain with an A at the end and then'they're like "Ahh". i've met quite a few Raina's, more so recently than whe I was growing up, but it is a rare and beautiful name and I love that it has a powerful meaning...Queen! Although my father'says he named me that because it rained a lot before I was born.
My name is Raina, aswell! Im from Canada, and nobody ever'seems to get my name right the first time. But they seem to get it pretty soon, and my friends and I always correct them if they say it wrong. I have a nickname of Rainabow. I like it! =D I was once called 'Rainy', and somebody once spelt my name like 'Reainea.' I love my name, its very unique, and i never have to worry about anyone having the'same name! :)
It'sounds like a made up hooker or stripper name to me.
THE NAME IS SO UNAWESOME. I KNOW NO ONE NAMED KEELY BUT I DO KNOW THAT THE NAME IS SO STUPID.
My name is Raina. And usually I get asked how to write or spell it. But It's said like Ray-nuh easy. And I know one other Raina, but she'spells it like Rayna. I love this name. I always get compliments.

Our daughter name is RAINA and I did not know bout this name froma anywhere, just a word "raina" came to my mind and I serached about it on internet. We found it a beautiful name for our baby. She is 2 months old now.

My name is Raina. Sometimes I get bored of it... but I really love it! It's really unique and my friends call me cute things out my name, for example Rainiboo. I find that cute. People call me like, Rina, (Rye-na) and that annoys me a lot! I live in America, but my parents are from India. I love how my name comes from so many languages! My name in HindI'means Twilight, so I especially like it! Also, my teache's call me Queen, because I'm sorta talkative and I lead a lot in class. Raina is an AWESOME name!
My name is Rana and I'm in Canada, as well. I love my name, I think I always have! It's so different! i've had people butcher the'spelling and pronunciation, but that's okay, I'm quick and polite to correct them every time until they get it right. My parents heard the name and liked it, they may have made up the'spelling, though! I help people say my name by saying It's "like rainbow, with AH at the end", that'seems to work.

We named our girl Anya after discussing Anastasia. I wanted a Russian name but picked an "American" spelling instead of Anja just to help with the pronunciation of it.
I like Raina, Rana, Raena, and of course, my name Rayana. My name gets butchered by everyone. They often want to call me Ray-anna (with two N's). My nam is pronounced Ray-A-nuh.

My name is Raina. I love how unique it is but i get annoyed because it is such a simple name but get's pronounced wrong all the time.My friends call me Ray sometimes. But I do like how there's really only one of me in my town. It's pretty cool. I also know of a couple of other Raina's but they spell it Reina, like the'spanish way. I still love to hear it aloud because if It's said slowly i think it can be beautiful :)
Raina is very multi-cultural. There are variations of this name in India, Bulgaria, Spain, the Yiddish language and in the Arab world. Also, there is a handbag, shoes, lilly pulitzer dress, persian carpet, cabbage patch doll as well as many other things named after us.

I wrote a book when I was 27. The heroine's name was Raina. I based her on a real person of Anglo-Indian anscestry. She had a sad life, but she was a poet and a dreamer. I felt so sad when I had to let her go at the end of the book.

I am blessed to be named Raina! My mother did great picking it out. I have only met one other in person but obviously there are many! A rare and unique name for sure
