Meaning: Awakening; Precious; Child

A melodic name for a baby whose soul is awakened in all corners of the world, Alonna is a girl’s name with Hawaiian, Old German, and Gaelic roots. The name stems from the Hawaiian word alana, which means “awakening,” and finds its Irish roots in the feminization of Alan. While the male version means “handsome,” Alana, and thus Alonna, take on the meaning “precious.” Alonna also means “child,” and while her youthful years are sure to go by in the blink of an eye, this versatile name can be a perfect fit at all stages along the way.
