Meanings
- A female given name from Latin.
O grave and good Paulina, the great comfort / That I have had of thee!
Scene 31 more example
She smells like expensive soap and her teeth are shiny-white. She does not in any way look like her name. It's not her fault that she was born in a time when people believed in names like Wanda, Dottie and Betty. She's more of a Vanessa or Paulina.
