Lyana

US Popularity Rank: 5597

Origin: Indian

Meaning: Youthful; Soft, delicate; Eye of the light

Lyana is a feminine name that will remind baby to enjoy every moment of being little! With several potential meanings to consider, this name’s origin story is one with many twists and turns. When spoken, Lyana sounds like a shortened form of Juliana, so it’s possible that the two names share a meaning. In Latin, the word Iūlius means “youthful,” just one name definition for baby to think about! If the best part of little Lyana’s personality is their sweet and tender heart, their name’s meaning of “soft” and “delicate” in Arabic will become even more fitting. Life will give baby Lyana many opportunities to shine, but from your perspective, they’ll always be in the “eye of the light,” just as their name’s Indian meaning suggests.
