Dijanna is in Origin.

Dijanna is a contemporary elaboration of Dijana and Dianna, ultimately tracing back to Latin Diana, the name of the Roman goddess of the moon and the hunt. The root is linked to divus, “divine” and the bright sky, giving the sense of “heavenly, shining.” In South Slavic spelling, j represents a y-sound, yielding Dijana; the double n echoes the English Dianna. Combined, they produce Dijanna, a distinctive yet transparent form.

Diana spread across Europe from the Renaissance and saw renewed English prominence, notably boosted by Princess Diana. J-spelled forms became common in the Balkans in the late 20th century, while Dijanna remains rare, appearing in South Slavic and diaspora families or as a creative respelling. Related forms include Diana, Dianna, Dijana, Dajana, Dayana, and Deanna; short forms include Di, Didi, Jana, and Ana.
