The name Nina has been used for thirteen typhoons in the northwest Pacific Ocean, one tropical cyclone in the northeast Pacific Ocean, and one tropical cyclone in the southwest Pacific.

Twelve typhoons have been named Nina. In addition, one hurricane in the Central Pacific was given this name because the policy at the time was to use typhoon names in the Central Pacific.
