Ariannah as a Baby Name. Meaning and Origin of Ariannah

What is the meaning of the name Ariannah ?

The baby name Ariannah is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced ah-ree-AN-uh (common English), IPA: /ˌær.iˈæn.ə/.

Ariannah is Greek, Latin in Origin.

Ariannah is a modern English elaboration of Arianna/Ariana. Arianna is the Italian form of Greek Ariadne, from ari- “very/most” + hagnos “pure, holy,” giving the sense “most holy” or “very pure.” Via Ariana, it also links to Old Iranian arya “noble,” seen in the ancient place-name Ariana. Thus Ariannah commonly carries the dual meanings “most holy/very pure” and “noble.”

Ariadne’s myth kept the name alive in classical tradition, and Arianna gained cultural notice in Italy (e.g., Monteverdi’s L’Arianna, 1608). Arianna/Ariana rose in English use late in the 20th century; Ariannah appears mainly in North America as a creative respelling with -h and double n. Variants include Arianna, Ariana, Ariane, Arianne, Ariadne, Aryana, Aryanna, and Arianah. Diminutives: Ari, Aria, Ria, and Anna.
