 Behind the Name: View Comments
"Raina" originates from the Bulgarian word "rai" meaning "paradise" as a noun ("rai" is pronounced [rai], where [ai] is a DIPHTHONG, not [rai] with a stress on the "a", like the Italian television).
Most probably the confusion comes from the pronunciation of "rai" - the fact that people who see the name written "Raina" or "Rayna" pronounce it [raina] with a stress on the "i" or on the "a", but not [raina] with the DIPHTHONG [ai], in which case the stress falls on the whole "rai".
The Bulgarian "Raina Yakimova", who was born on 15th December, 1934, in Burgas, Bulgaria, known as "Raina Kabaivanska", is one of the most famous Bulgarian opera singers.

Those words written of the voice of the great Kabaivanska are as true today as they were when first written several years ago!
It is worth the price if only to hear this most remarkable artist sing the stirring "Giusto ciel en tal periglia" from Rossini's "L'assendio di Corinto." Her execution of the ornamentations in this beautiful aria are a superb tribute to the artists dedication to the proper interpretations of the period.
Equally exquisite is her interpretation of Violetta's heart-breaking aria, "Addio del passato," from Verdi's "La Traviata." La Kabaivanska shows her peerless interpretation of characters on CD, almost to the extent she shows them on stage or film.
