Hmmm...
Well, I actually tend to select names based on personality or other factors. I happen to have two hispanic characters I can use for examples:
Luna Lobo: Obvious, but Luna is Spanish for "moon" and Lobo is Spanish for "wolf," and she is a werewolf.
Rey Rosales: "Rey" means "king" in Spanish, while "Rosales" is a Spanish surname derived from "rose." This one is a bit esoteric, but the joke is that Rey is the Queen of the Chessmaster's Pieces in my upcoming comic "The Chessmaster" (to be fair the Chessmaster's King is a girl and the leading lady) as well as flamingly gay (a queen), so it's ironic that his first name means "king." As for Rosales, while "yaoi" is most often known as the term for the boys love genre, it wasn't always, and the original term for boy-on-boy in Japan was "bara" which means "rose," and it was from this that the term "yuri" meaning "lily" was derived from, again referencing his homosexuality. Though just so I don't make you uncomfortable, most of Rey's Hollywood flaming gay personality is played for laughs, and I reveal that he is, in fact, dating an FtM transsexual (as in, female body, male mind), so he's more homoflexible, since it's his lover being male on the inside that matters to him, not male on the outside. Ironically, though, while Rey is homoflexible, so is Luna, in that she's mainly a lesbian but only cares if the girl is female on the inside (hence why she's dating Prodigious Hakuewi, an MtF transsexual). This is pure coincidence, though, as they exist in separate stories.
So, TL;DR: What's her personality, species, etc. like, and we can probably derive a Latina name from that. ^_^

Ah, gotcha.
Well, how about Martina? That's a cute name for a Latina.
"Bonita" is also Spanish for "gorgeous" and, in addition to a common pet name for a Spanish-speaker to call a girl, it's also a semi-common Spanish name.

You know, the name Martina might work with the surname I've found. I'll post an update for this soon.
