Gaytaneh is Armenian in Origin.

Gaytaneh is a rare feminine given name whose form suggests a bridge between Armenian Gayane/Gayaneh (Գայանե) and French Gaëtane. As an Armenian name, it traces to Greek Gaiane (Γαϊανή), the feminine of Latin Gaianus, related to Gaius (of debated origin, often linked to gaudere "rejoice"); in the French line, it derives from Latin Caietanus "from Gaeta," source of Gaetano/Gaëtan and Spanish Cayetano/Cayetana. Meaning is thus read either as "belonging to Gaius" or "woman from Gaeta," depending on lineage.

Use is anchored in Armenia through the cult of Saint Gayane, a fourth-century abbess and martyr, and gained cultural visibility via Khachaturian's ballet Gayane. In Francophone countries, the Gaëtane family rose with devotion to Saint Gaetan (Cajetan). Variants include Gayane, Gayaneh, Gaiane, Gayana, Gaëtane, Gaetane, Gaetana, Cayetana, and the modern forms Gaytane and Gaytaneh.
