This name is awful. Just truly abysmal. I apologize to all who bear it, you're probably stronger for dealing with this massive millstone around your neck. I am aware it is pronounced, La-jee-nuh, not la-jie-nuh, but this is one letter off from Lagina, and a substitute teacher is going to pronounce it wrong, resulting in a very bad day. Possibly more. Kids will jump at any chance to say something dirty and if it's at the expense of someone else, that's even better. Don't name your kid this, and this name sounds horribly unsophisticated.

The list of related names is an absolute dumpster fire. Regina and Eugene and Georgette have nothing to do with each other. Whoever was allowed to put this list together should be stripped of their powers.Names are related when they share linguistic or historical roots, not when, by coincidence, they share a few sounds or letters in common.
Thanks for the laugh Behind the Name. I was laughing for a whole 5 minutes just looking at this name. Anyways, a moment of silence to those with this name.
Gotta hate your kid to give them an unfortunate name like Lagina. You know what kind of jokes the poor kid will get, even with the "correct" pronunciation.
I can’t seem to figure out why Lagina is such a disgusting name. It’s pronounced Luh-jeen-nuh, not Luh-jien-nuh, and besides, it doesn’t start with a V either, so I can’t imagine puns on this name. Please accept my guilty pleasure for this name! I love it, but wouldn’t use it.

Guys, I think it's pronounced La-JEEN-ah so it's not as bad as it seems. So the name would be fixed of its 'lady' association if you just spelt it differently. Like Lageena. But overall I agree, I dislike the name.
Hell fire... This is a name?! I agree with every single word in all the comments above. If I had been unfortunately named that, I'd change my name ASAP.
My name is very close to this one with a little different spelling. Everyone who says it's torture having this name, your right. I went through tons of teasing and even all my nicknames resemble a woman's special part. It was terrible, but after highschool things got better.
It does sound nice- until you consider its unfortunate closeness. Well, you know. That's just a bit too much for a name. A rather unpleasant relation to the already joke-baitish Virginia.
This is another stupid-sounding name with a prefix. And yes, the other kids in school will substitute the 'L' with a 'V'. Assuming they don't have the same background as a girl named LaGina, and assuming they have gotten some REAL sex ed, that is, and they even know what a vagina is.
Okay, this name is frightening. Please - PLEASE don't name your kids this. I would personally off myself if you went and named me this. Honestly. Sounds too much like a different word, if you ask me.
To the parents who made up this joke of a name: It had better be pronounced "la-JEE-na". Even so, it still sounds too much like a woman's special organ. If your daughter is teased without mercy, it's your fault that she's being teased and that you look like fools.
