Where did the Spanish Marina family come from? What is the Spanish Marina family crest and coat of arms? When did the Marina family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Marina family history?

The earliest forms of hereditary surnames in Spain were the patronymic surnames, which are derived from the father's given name, and metronymic surnames, which are derived from the mother's given name. Similar to many Spanish patronymic names, the distinguished surname Marina is a proud sign of a rich and ancient ancestry. The name Marina was originally derived from the French given name Marin, which was itself derived from the Latin given name Marinus. The French given name Marin was an occupational name for a sailor.
