In Costa Rica there is an important place called Matina. It's in the province Limon.
Also I found this:
Matina is a sufi name for God. It means 'firmness, rootedness.' The full name will mean: divine firmness, divine rootedness.

Thank you so much for you time
This is a guess, as you don't give us any info on where you found this name, the language, the approximate date etc.
Could be it's based on the word for an early-morning church service - Matins. There was a Roman goddess called Matutina, if I remember correctly, who was in charge of sunrise, so Matina could be a new way of naming a girl born then ... like Dawn.
Or it could equally be someone's attempt at feminising Matthew. Anything more that you could tell us woule help.
