What is the meaning of the name Diannah ?

The baby name Diannah is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced dee-AN-uh (IPA: /diˈænə/).

Diannah is Latin in Origin.

Diannah is a modern Anglicized elaboration of Diana, with a terminal -h modeled on forms like Hannah and Norah. Diana comes from Latin, the name of the Roman goddess of the moon and the hunt, and is connected to Latin divus meaning divine and Proto-Indo-European root dyeu- meaning bright sky, day. As a result, Diannah carries senses of divine, heavenly, and luminous.

The given name Diana emerged in Renaissance Italy and spread across Europe, entering English use by the 1500s and enjoying periodic revivals, most notably a late-20th-century surge influenced by Diana, Princess of Wales. The spelling Diannah appears sporadically in English-speaking records from the late 19th century onward as an ornamental variant and remains rare. Close variants and cognates include Diana, Dianna, Diane (French), and Dianne; Romanian, Italian, and Spanish also use Diana. Related but etymologically distinct are Deanna and Deanne. Common diminutives are Di, Ana, and Nia.
