Nina is a side character from the second season of the Good Omens TV show.
Canon
Nina owns the coffee shop Give Me Coffee Or Give Me Death on Whickber Street. At the start of season two, she is in a relationship with an off-screen character called Lindsay, who treats her in a controlling and demeaning way. Throughout the season, Aziraphale and Crowley put Nina and Maggie (who she initially doesn’t know that well) in cliched situations from romance stories in order to make them fall in love. They are frustrated by this and eventually confront Crowley about it, but Nina does end up developing feelings for Maggie. However, she recognises it would be a bad idea to immediately begin a relationship as she has just broken up with Lindsay and is still very hurt by how they treated her, and so decides to wait until she is ready.
Fandom
One fandom discussion is how Nina could be a mirror to Crowley, due to their similarly grumpy personalities, or Aziraphale, as her experience of a toxic relationship is not unlike how he’s treated by Heaven.
Shipping
- Maggie/Nina is the most popular pairing involving Nina, although the platonic ship Maggie & Nina is also quite common.
- There are also many Crowley & Maggie & Nina fanworks, mostly focused on their friendship post-canon and how they support Crowley after Aziraphale leaves for Heaven.
