The toponym Makrino has been rendered in several forms such as Makryno(n), derived paretymologically from the Greek word for long and Makrini, based on folk etymologies or alternate explanations devised by local scholars about the name or locality. For example, such as an association with an icon of St. Macrina located nearby the village, the baptismal name Makrini or local remains being linked with the ancient city of Paroraia. These forms differ from the local Aromanian form and pronunciation of the placename which is MÃÂkrin(u). The toponym is derived from the Slavic word mokrino, earlier mokrinÃÂno meaning 'wet place' from the Slavic word mokrÃÂ 'wet' and within the placename, the Slavic o is rendered as a in Greek.
The population of Makrino are hellenised Aromanians. Makrino was an Aromanian speaking village and over several decades the language declined in favour of Greek. Ioannikos, the Orthodox Metropolitan of Ioannina (1815-54) and an Aromanian speaker from Makrino influenced his village to stop speaking Aromanian and use Greek in the 19th century. Makrino in the early 20th century became solely Greek speaking.
