Cipriana is Italian, Latin in Origin.

Cipriana is the feminine form of Cipriano, from Latin Cyprianus, meaning "of Cyprus" or "from Cyprus," ultimately linked to Greek Kypros, the island's name. Through early Christian Latin the name spread widely, carried by the revered third-century bishop St. Cyprian of Carthage; the feminine developed later as a learned and devotional adaptation in Romance languages.
