Throughout the world, Alpina (Alpina 
, Альпина 
) is quite a rare principally female, but very infrequently male first name. The first name Alpina is habitual in Nicaragua, where it is a rare girly name, Indonesia, where it is a rare mostly feminine, but infrequently masculine name, and Kazakhstan, where it is a rare female name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in India, Indonesia, and Russia. Much less frequently, Alpina is the last name as well as the forename.
